    The best answer is, They though the US and British troops would treat them better than the Soviet troops.

    As the end of World War II approached and German forces were faced with the decision to surrender or desert the war effort, which meant certain death at the hands of the SS or Gestapo, many looked for US and British forces, rather than their Soviet counterparts. During the war, German forces enacted terrible atrocities against the people and soldiers of the Soviet Union, including mass executions of civilians and military personnel. As a result, many Germans were scared of what they might face at the hands of the Soviets.
