The reason they're high-pitched is probably because of a higher sampling rate than what is required. I haven't looked at the files you've posted, and I don't know if they're in .wav or not, but I'm guessing you had to decode them in order to have them playing on regular software. If this is the case, you might've accidentally increased the sampling rate by several kHz. If the files are in .wav format, you can easily load them in Audacity or Audition and lower the sampling rate, although this isn't recommended.
The best thing to do is try and re-extract and properly encode the samples. Just keep in mind that all sounds don't necessarily use the same sampling rate (frequency) for playback. Most SFX comes in 8kHz, but most likely 11kHz (11025 Hz) or possibly 16kHz, whereas voices are usually encoded in 22kHz (22050 Hz). I hope this helps, you've done a great job extracting these and I'm very glad to see another member helping out in the sound-department. Keep it up!
