I think that they will be asked to do this. If any of them refuse I think that they will be removed as mod and someone will be put into place that will do what is asked of them.
I'm expecting that as well. It'd be nice if the userbase pays enough attention to who the mods are of the big subreddits to notice when there's a large unexpected turnover and follow the kicked out mods to the new versions of the subs that one would expect to rise up in the wake of such actions.
End result: IAMA mods take over the duties themselves and follow the same standards.
