It would only make since that "since ye believed" is specifically referring to the Gospel of Jesus.
But at that point they had only been baptized unto John's baptism. Which makes you wonder if they had yet heard of Jesus.

Because he told them this:

"4Then said Paul, John verily baptized with the baptism of repentance, saying unto the people, that they should believe on him which should come after him, that is, on Christ Jesus."

And then, they were baptized in the name of the Lord Jesus.
