As the google van was travelling down the street someone tossed a child's toy over the top of the van and it was captured by one of the multilple cameras. The images from all the cameras are than stitched together.

Maybe it's an in-joke amongst Google car drivers.
Or something on the camera housing that needs pliers to fix, and the drivers are forgetting them when they finish the job.

Used to live less than a mile from that awful place (good people though), so nothing would surprise me!
