^I've heard about that strength comparison before but haven't looked into it much.

The 5 investigators that Yoshimura fought were definitely stronger than S rated ghouls. Shinohara, Kuroiwa and Juuzou are a given. Houji and his Quinque's make him quite a threat, and Ui managed to survive against Eto alone for a little while.

To gauge strength by scale, Kaneki in his half kakuja form had trouble beating Shinohara who was using a weaker version of Arata. At this time Kaneki could be considered around the middle of the SS rated spectrum.

So basically, being able to fight 2 Special Classes at once and still have the upper hand means they would be much stronger than the average SS rated ghoul
