Had to get new wires just because the outside of your plugs were wet? I have a hard time believing that. And the only way that water would get in the cylinder is if the spark plug was loose enough to fall out. I don't think i'd be too concerned about that happening.
I'd be more worried about getting water under the rotor cap. When you clean your engine in the future, make sure you keep the water spray away from any electronic components. And you might consider spraying a shot of WD-40 inside the rotor cap. This will keep the water from causing the spark arc between cylinders. I doubt that's what caused your RPM change, but it's something to think about.
Regardless, i doubt you did any harm to your car. Just be more careful with the high pressure in the future.
