I've never had to clean it, but I have taken the silicone off numerous times for other reasons—like to put the Kindle in a more protective cover for transport. We don't use indoor heating at our house so static is not usually a problem, but when outdoor humidity is in the single digits the air can be more charged.
I do think that climate/indoor heating probably has a lot to do with it. Carpeting can generate static too. I've also read people complain that their silicone covers attract cat hair like a magnet. I have a long-haired cat, and that's never been a problem for me.
