There is an official report from the Mineta Institute confirming the mural on the van. It states:
"There were continuing moments of alarm. A panel truck with a
painting of a plane flying into the World Trade Center was
stopped near the temporary command post. It proved to be
rented to group of ethnic Middle Eastern people who did not
speak English. Fearing that it might be a truck bomb, the NYPD
immediately evacuated the area, called out the bomb squad,
and detained the occupants until a thorough search was made.
The vehicle was found to be an innocent delivery truck."

Somehow they deemed it to be "innocent" but anyone with just a five percent functioning brain can see a truck with a mural of a plane diving in to the towers on 9/11 is more than just a coincidence.
Here is a transcript of the policy transmissions stating they had two suspects and the van with the mural exploded:
