It has been reported that galaxies in large regions (~102Mpc), including some clusters of galaxies, may be streaming coherently with velocities up to 600km/sec or more with respect to the rest frame determined by the microwave background radiation.) On the other hand, it is suggested that the dominant mass component of the universe is dark matter. Because we can only speculate the motion of dark matter from the galaxy motions, much attention should be paid to the correlation of velocities between the observed galaxies and cold dark matter. So we investigate whether such coherent large-scale streaming velocities are due to dark matter or only to baryonic objects which may be formed by piling up of gases due to some explosive events.
