Why would they give up prisoners they thought would be useful as bargaining chips? Many prisoners were left behind at many camps because they wouldn't be useful in such a scenario and so they were dumped on the (((Allies))) as deadweight
Bargaining chips for what? The Nazis never intended to surrender.
Handing over prisoners would effectively require a ceasefire on at least part of the front. This would allow them to free some German PaWs and give them time to regroup, pass out supplies, plan a strategy, rest, etc. A short ceasefire would have all kinds of help for them so it would make sense to hold potential bargaining chips to force this to happen if they could.
