Insurance companies would net benefit here.
Higher limits are touched less often. Your second 100k of coverage costs much less than your first. If everyone is forced to take on higher limits the insurance company comes out on top because everyone is paying for something they're unlikely to use.
This policy of increasing minimum coverage limits also has a greater impact on poorer citizens, so good luck dealing with that angle.
Edit: I swapped my first/second around originally
