Yes, the use of “who knows what” is correct!
The use of “who knows what” in this context can mean “nothing in particular” or “things with no detail”. Kind of like if you’re just thinking of whatever, but not anything worth mentioning. If that’s what you’re going for, then it’s correct~ Hope that helps!
