I'm sorry, but there's a bug in 6.7.8 (and some previous versions), 
where once the dedicated scheduler gets a machine, it ignores the 
UNUSED_CLAIM_TIMEOUT, and holds onto the machines forever.  This bug has 
been fixed in 6.7.9.  You can force it to release the machines by 
changing the value of UNUSED_CLAIM_TIMEOUT to a different value than it 
was before, and running condor_reconfig -schedd.

Sorry for the bug.
