We saw 6 lights flashing and moving very quickly above us in a straight line, but much faster than the starlink videos

My wife is retired air force and knows a lot about satellites and planes. She can't explain this. It was 6 bright lights very high above, moving in a straight formation. They shot quickly through the sky but we lost them because trees obstructed the view. It was probably a coincidence, but dry lightening started right when we saw them. Too organized (followed in a straight line) to be a meteor shower. My wife thinks there's a small chance they were planes from the base, but they were very high and very fast. I watched the starlink videos you posted but this was much faster and there were only 6 or so. They were white lights, possibly other cars but I was so surprised that I don't remember. It was night, so we could only see the lights.
