Same thing happened to me. IIRC it works like this:
If you attack a ship from a neutral nation at any time (or on any date), that nation will consider you an enemy vessel and treat you accordingly for the following 24 hours.
Prior to the start of hostilities on Sept 1, the game considers all nations to be neutral.
The "target ships" are all German. I assume this to be the case, since it's unlikely that Britain or any other nation would be supplying target ships for the Kriegsmarine.
If you fire on them during an Aug 1939 shakedown patrol (standing GWX orders notwithstanding), the game considers this an attack on "neutral" German vessels. Consequently all German AI forces will treat you as an enemy for 24 hours.
Way around this, as I understand it, is to use the "teleport" function to return to base without cruising all the way back there past German warships and land-based batteries (Esc, Exit Patrol, Dock at: Konigsberg).

Yep that is exactly where I have started and it's happened to me lol.
So the tip of the day, on first patrol do nothing haha.
