From what I hear, the road's automated systems look for vehicles that are "wanted" - folks with outstanding warrants, terrorists, that kind of thing. The police that patrol the road aren't county or state police - they are the Maryland Transportation Authority Police.

I know that there has to be a lot more to it. But it's definitely odd.

And I can tell you I've gone past them running radar at over 75 mph on a couple of occasions and was not pulled over.
