5 non blinking red-orange lights in V formation zooming silently across the night sky

Approximately 10:20 PM, PST, Monday, November 16, 2009, walking my dog waiting for him to catch up with me, I looked up into the sky at the Orion constellation and my eye caught the motion of 5 dim red-orange lights moving in a V formation across the sky at a fast pace from east to west, heading directly toward Santa Cruz Island over Ventura, CA. I could not decipher whether there were 5 individual crafts or one craft with 5 lights. The lights were not blinking.

From about 30 degrees up from the eastern sky, it took about 7 seconds from where I picked it up to where it disappeared on the western horizon. The group of lights were about twice the size of the Little Dipper constellation. What made the experience so erie, was that it was flying too fast to be flying high or flying too low to not emit any noise. It was totally silent. There were no other sounds in the neighborhood to distract from hearing any noises from above.
