I suspect this will not do what you intend. The -where OGR_GEOMETRY='Polygon'  
is applied *before* conversion of curves to linear geometries.
So either modify your where clause to select the curve geometries you want 
(you can use the OR boolean operator ), or do the filtering in a second stage 
by first outputing to let's say a temporary Spatialite and then convert to 
shape

If your GML file has several layers, your above method will not merge them into 
a single shapefile.

You could do a ogr2ogr temporary_shp_directory file.gml [....]

and then merge all the shapefiles in temporary_shp_directory into a single one 
by using ogr2ogr / ogr2ogr -append
