They didn't. Winter War (1939-1940) ended in Moscow Peace treaty that was signed by both parties on March 12, 1940. Continuation War (1941-1944) instead ended first in ceasefire on September 4, 1944 and a bit more formally to Moscow Armistice on September 19, 1944. Final peace treaty was not signed until at Paris at 1947.

Not at first, because the Soviet Union attacked Finland. That Winter War 1939-1940 was over, however Finland did decide to join Hitler in his attack on the Soviet Union in June 1941.
There was 3 key results due to the Battle of Berlin. They were that it was a soviet victory, Hitler (Along with his lover and other high ranked Nazis) committed suicide and Germany signed a unconditional surrender on May 2nd. This surrender didn't come into effect fully until May 9th, where fights around and outside of Berlin ended.
