The Japanese were preparing to be invaded. The Russian successes extremely late in the war meant very little. The Japanese were preparing to fall on their swords en masse to protect the home island.
Until the second bomb was dropped did they see the wisdom of surrender. I don't think Russia finally going on the offensive in the East played much if any role in their thinking.
