no, smog is a contraction of smoke and fog(originally observed in London when houses burned coal for heat and cooking), however it is usually used now to refer to a haze produced photochemically from car exhaust (photochemical smog). A mushroom cloud is a mixture of debris picked up, vaporized metal, smoke from fires, etc. produced by an explosion (nuclear or not).
