I think the two cables I used are not only different lengths, but it looks like the original negative cable may be 6 AWG and the replacement positive is definitely 4 AWG. As the trailer is 2 hours away from me, and the batteries are just topping off with solar, is it a problem to have different gauge, and length, cables for a week or 2?

Shouldn't be a problem.
