Speedometer symbols F56

Speedometer symbols F56
Anybody know what these symbols mean on the speedometer? 2 Orange figure symbols next to the gear indicator position
They appear when you first start the car, and then go out about 15 seconds later.

They look like the little girls from The Shining.

I had a look around the internet and through the manual and came up with nothing.

But I wonder if they are related to profiles. If you open the car with another remote, do you get a different count of people?

They're just to remind you if you have rear seat passengers to make sure they're buckled up.

Seems vetsvette is right, they turn green if the rear seatbelt is in use.
