May even be a police sedan with after-market R/T "add-ons". We played with the idea of dressing up our unmarked Charger like a R/T using parts available from an on-line catalog to make it more difficult to ID as a police unit, but left it "as-is". And BTW, those aren't R/T-spec wheels... those are the standard police steelies, not available with R/T packages (and why would you put those on a R/T anyway??).
My guess is someone had some fun adding after-market parts to a police-spec Charger. It's very easy to do. Point in fact, although police-spec Chargers do not come through with "HEMI" emblems, all of our Chargers sport them, thanks to the Dodge dealership where our warranty work is done.
In looking at those pictures, the only R/T-spec equipment visible to me is the "shaker" hood w/scoop, the small rear-deck spoiler, the chrome exhaust tips and the "R/T" emblems. All that stuff can be easily aquired and added on.
It IS mean-looking though!!
