   I googled until my fingers hurt on why coke (which is acidic, I believe)   
   would work given baking soda is basic and that is known to work well.   
      
   Only one article made a claim as to how the soda worked, and they said the   
   bubbles are a mechanical boost to cleaning the crud off of tight spaces.   
      
   Given the crud is a result of acid, I don't see that it would be removed   
   with an acid so if it works at all, I would tend to guess that's how.   
      
   So I think it's mechanical more than chemical, if it works at all.   
      
   But if you find out something chemical related, let me know.
