Is Google still actively crawling pages blocked in robots.txt? If not perhaps Google only "deindexes" pages reluctantly, so it'll be a while before they disappear from search results. In any case, observing robots.txt seems to be more of a MAY than a MUST - if you really want to stop the crawlers you'll probably have to block IPs.
