You don't need to add electricity to get a galvanic reaction. It happens all by istelf when two dissimilar metals are in contact in an electrolyte solution.

Was the soaking done in a metal bucket?

I'm not saying the salt and vinegar won't clean them up, just syaing not to discount galvanic action possibly being the problem. Heck, for all I know it could have just been the green dye in the Simple Green.
