A million or more people leaving will not have that big of an effect on its own, no. Since most of the people who left were the people who actually cared though will eventually make a difference. Everything that's wrong with Reddit now is going to get 10 times worse. Popular subs will be overrun with trolls and spam. Mods won't care anymore since no one apparently cared about the work they did. Eventually it will turn into a marketing tool for shitty bands to sell albums, and scammers to rip people off like Myspace did so long ago.
It might take a year or two or even 5 before it is unrecognizable, and that will be now Reddit ends. No one will care by then. It probably won't even make the news
