Continuity mistake: The position of the Top Secret sign and the whole text is put on the ark's box across vertically laid planks, with a wood crossbar on the right, which only the side panels have. A shot later the sign appears slanted across horizontally laid planks. Though it could be argued that there could be a second sign on the opposite side with horizontal planks, when the warehouse guy turns left to store the crate, we get a glimpse of the left side and it's not painted.
Suggested correction: The other text and the different plank design could be on the base of the box or on the front wall (the wall opposite the man pushing the box), two walls we never see when the box is being pushed. In fact, at one point the camera passes next to a box that has two texts, one on a short wall and one on a long wall.

Revealing mistake: When the Nazis are about to glow (and die), check the one on our left. His shirt is already unbuttoned right where the light will subsequently glow (which was a mere light bulb). A second later, he triggers a device clutched in his right hand (seemingly a switch) seconds before his chest lights up. (01:47:25)
