It works at it should  
You probably want to put patterns="^CentOS.\*\.repo" with a point to  
represent any character... (not tested)  
Your regex match a repetition of S

Be careful that these files will came back when upgrading with yum the  
package "centos-release"...  
Perhaps it should be better to add lines in these files to deactivate  
these repos instead
