The winrate is unlikely to improve that much. The additional hands being played are probably very marginal winners at best. We're probably talking about hands that are worth .05 BB/hand or something along those lines, so your winrate is not going to increase by the same percent as the number of hands played increases.

However, you may see a slight increase in the value of your other hands. You may get slightly more action on your better hands being a 20% VPIPer instead of a 15% VPIPer, or hand readers will have a more difficult time putting you on a hand, etc. However, I don't think this jump in hands played is going to do very much of this, if at all. It's merely a possibility.
