Hungary defects to the Allies

In 1944, Hungary attempted to defect to the allies but the Germans found out and occupied the country before this could happen.

What if Hungary had defected successfully and the Germans did not find out until it was too late?

I'm thinking Hungary would be able to keep Northern Transylvania, Romania also having been an Axis member, but the Czechoslovak lands could be a different matter.

Without the German occupation, there would not be a Holocaust in Hungary, Subcarpathia, and Northern Transylvania.

Realistically six months for the Soviet Union to liberate Horthy, the Social Democrats, revolutionary workers sd cp or unaligned, and the stay behind Communists from the questions of the Hungarian revolution and instead impose Stalins best disciple.

Hundreds of thousands of people are going to be processed by the German occupiers in that time.
