RC '75,
Just to add one footnote to Clem's post, the application light bulbs blow quite frequently, since they are lit most of the time. Since a ladder would be needed to replace the application light bulbs on an M-1 in a yard, they often ride until the next PI. (M-3 and M-7 application and release lights are accessible from inside the car. Yet, they also often ride with blown bulbs or LEDs 'til the next PI.)
You most likely just saw car(s) with blown application light bulbs. It is far from a rare occurrance.
