So, USSR took a break from killing it's own people to killing Germans instead?

  Not really. They pretty much stayed on course with both programs throughout the war — and this was true for those in the military just as much as civilians. The policy of shooting anyone who hinted at retreat, combined with treating Soviet POWs as traitors (which encouraged soldiers to fight to the literal death), contributed to both tallies.
