4,5,6 are Zeroes and it's not all about E,V

You don't know what you've got 'till it's gone:

Shortly before 4 p.m., power was knocked out to 136,700 customers in the Bronx and Manhattan and subway service was disrupted on several of the city’s busiest subway lines — the Nos. 4, 5 and 6 and E and V lines on the East Side and the D line in the Bronx.

Since the trains are on their own DC utility system, they can get to stations. However, the century-old signaling system is on AC, so they can't continue full service. Happy walking!
