The water inside the potatoes was escaping due to the heat and the water vapor made that noise

Potatoes contain a lot of water, and when the potato heats up, the water becomes steam. The steam escapes through the skin of the potato like steam through the narrow spout opening of a tea kettle. And just like a tea kettle, the potato whistles while it works! :)

They whistle because they don't know the words.
