Paperclip isn't exactly a legend, but it certainly has the makings of a modern myth. There was no race for the scienntific legacy of the Third Reich, and while all Allies were more than willing to grab whatever chunks looked valuable and deny them to the rest, the US army did not keep snatch lists of the scientists and plans they wanted, and neither did the Soviets. If the Americans had been less ready to take in German scientists and engineers, it is unlikely the Soviets would have been much more successful. These guys were not going to wait around to greet the frontovniks, and their privileged position meant they could escape west. A couple more of them would be facing trial for their crimes (you know how the British felt about von Braun), but the most likely outcome is that some unnamed NASA engineering group comes up with the ideas von Braun built his legend on, West Germany's industry gains a few talented engineers, and the Soviet space and nuclear programmes proceed as per OTL. There wouldn't really be any difference in international relations because the western Allies had enough evidence no longer to trust Stalin no matter what happened to the rockets at Peenemünde, and stalin had never truisted the Western Allies in the first place.
