Front-only power windows continued into the late 50's (and beyond?) to accommodate 2 door sedan "Club Coupes" with fixed rear windows and the 2-door Suburban wagons with non roll-down back-seat windows.

Power windows were pretty much found only on the higher priced cars at the time and any power windows on a lowly Dodge were a tad on the rare side. But since all the magic stuff to do them were in the corporate parts bins why not spread them around and make a few extra dollars. It was easier to get the buyer of the more popular, mid-size cars to pop for half a set than it was to get them to buy a whole set; at least that was the logic behind it. Overall I don't know how well it played out as I do not believe the front only option lasted all that long. But some did go for the half sets as your car and attest to.

Sure it will be the same one. Seems really strange to have only front windows powered.
