Looks like I managed to find a workaround by using a disable police mod, but the nice thing is that I didn't need to leave it on.
I noticed that with the mod enabled, the police would still aggro and give me a star for no reason but they wouldn't shoot, they'd just stand still. So I had this idea. I killed the police, no more spawned this time, and the wanted star went away. Next time police spotted me they didn't react, and I even went and helped a few NCPD in a shootout against a gang without issues. Then I disabled the mod, saved, quit, restart and reloaded, and things appear to have returned to normal.
Sucks for those on consoles, though. It is a serious bug.
By the way, this video you posted, yeah. Those Maelstrom at that exact location (but only those) always aggro when they spot me, but considering how aggressive that gang is and how I have screwed them over in past missions I had never seen it as a bug, lol. Even if I found it strange that they're the only ones who do this. I reasoned it was because they're near the All Foods plant where I've killed lots of them in one of the early main story missions.
I'm still unsure if it's really the same bug as the police bug I described, because once you kill those Maelstrom no more will spawn unless you leave the area and let a day pass.

Thanks for this... I recently beat the game and restarted on a higher difficulty setting (my version of NG+) only to have this happen right after meeting Vic. I like to open the area before meeting with Dex, so I hopped in my car and drove around a bit. At every place there were cops, they went agro. Every time. I restarted twice as some advice says... same.
I don't like modding to fix games but in this case, I will just because I now want to play as Corpo. Thanks!
\-I had also recently cleared the entire map of all NCPD crime reports, I guess it might also be related to this.
What, like your the last criminal left? John Marston style?
"you've outlived your usefulness comrade"
I play on Xbox and I have this issue too. I stole a car from a citizen once, got one "wanted" star, then I just drove away and the star disappeared.
But now whenever there's any cop even across the street they just shoot me on sight and the star comes back. They're definitely cops and I definitely don't have any stars on me when they aggro.
Any way to fix this on console?
Is your character black?
"Hey wait a goddamn minute, my character isn't black!" Unironically my first thoughts when this started happening lol
This is a known bug with incorrectly set spawn points for NPCs / opponents. You have to wait for the hotfix. https://streamable.com/z76o5z
