Welcome to SeeSat-L, DJ.

The objects you observed do not correlate with known satellites, and I doubt
that they were satellites, because at the time of your observation, objects
moving at the observed angular velocity would have been roughly 5000 km distant,
so unlikely to have been seen in silhouette.
