Hmm - if the pointing wasn't moved, then there could be remnance in the detector? The intensity of the streak is nowhere near constant, I see on close examination. There appears to be 'shadowing' on the 'upper' 'night' end which fades toward the 'lower' 'day' end.
I suppose it could be a ground feature created by an incoming recent meteorite, hence overlaying all prior cratering etc.?
