There is something wrong about hot queries that Google trends is showing presently; a jet heading into two towers. There isn’t any clue as to what is this all about (probably a prank) but Google released a statement about the matter:

The Hot Trends list is automatically generated by machines and algorithms that detect hot or breaking queries. In this case, it appears that the html code for this query was posted on a popular internet bulletin board, which led to quite a few people searching to find out more about this symbol. The Hot Trends list reflected that surge due to people searching with this query.
