58 - Boxcars
60 - Brandenburg Gate, the entrance to the Reichstag

7 down is a reference to Syd Barrett of Pink Floyd. Their wall concerts were openly antisemitic, with the fascists of the “wall” being adorned with Stars of David and a Hitleresque fascist leader — with Roger Waters being a open antisemite and hater of Israel.
Lots of various references to Islam throughout.
