Yes, I was wrong. The 2nd nearby is Murmansk, and that's to far away for that measurements. So it's clear that it was from the stone aged St Petersburg plant, a design before Chernobyl 3+4 (which was iter 2). Their broken Unit 1 is shut down, but the old 2-4 are still online, plus 4 modern ones.

Or that military ship Akademik Aleksandrov which was nearby at that time. https://news.ycombinator.com/item?id=23664056
