As stated several times above, the protectee could be just about anyone and the "goons" were most likely Secret Service or US Marshall Service. I saw a similar caravan nearly every morning on Cedar Lane turning towards Fairfax on Lee Highway when I worked in Tysons and always wondered who was inside.
I have several friends in the Secret Service and was surprised to learn the scope (not specific details, obviously) of people and positions in the metro DC area receiving protection. Paul McNulty, former Deputy AG, had children at our high school and his security detail at school events was pretty visible - similar to what you are describing.
