    The first 3 satellites you saw, were the Noss 2-2 satellites.
    
    The next 2 you spotted was the Noss 3-3 satellites
    
    Noss are us military satellites, so no official orbital data is available on them. 
    
    These satellites  just happen to have orbital planes seperated by a few degres. So that's why you
    saw what you did.
