In JOSM, select all the roads.  You can do this using several methods:
   o Search for certain tags.  For example, if you've downloaded a  
small section, and you've reviewed every street name and location, you  
can search for "tiger:reviewed" to catch all the unreviewed ways.
   o Draw a box around the ways.
   o Shift-click on way after way after way (Control-click if you  
select too much).

When you've selected everything you want to mark as reviewed, go to  
the Properties box on the right.  Scroll down to tiger:reviewed.   
Click on it, and then click on the trash can on the right.  Poof!
