Two good bets for this would be DPS and the local constable. DPS supervisors get unmarked cars.
The Chevy I drove was unmarked, and it carried regular (or "alias") plates. Although there are innumerable unmarked cars out there carrying exempt plates, nothing is done about it, so don't be surprised to see them too.
Many years ago, when I bought a car from out of state and tagged it in Texas, the constable of Precinct 2, Harris County, wanted them for use on undercover cars, since the tags were still good for about 6 months. Since I didn't have to return them to the state of issue, I let them have them. Years later I did another car from Connecticut. They didn't get those as I had to return them to Connecticut.
