KG66 Ju88S-3 at Sola, May '45. Pic

Just recently in a book about the liberation of Stavanger I found this picture of what is most likely a Ju88S-3 from KG66 that landed at Sola, Norway on May 5 1945.
According to available lists the werkenummer would be one of three left behind at the end of the hostilities.
330570, 330942 and 330719.
Admittedly I don't have much on KG66 S-3's but I do have a few pictures showing their earlier machines from 43/44 wearing a sort of dotted scheme in a night-fighter fashion, presumably for nocturnal hit-and-run bombing ops.
This machine appears to be wearing som sort of wellenmüster. Was this common in '45?
Anyone care to shed some light on these machines?
