As tempting as it is, I would suggest... NO! Multiple changes at the same time are rarely a good idea on critical infrastructure. You end up not knowing which change broke what when it comes time to troubleshoot. While overlapping problems are unlikely in this case, I would say it's still best to do the renumbering as more of an over-time process. There's no reason to do renumbering as a flag day.
