Once the 75% threshold is reached, miners who haven't updated are at risk of mining on invalid blocks.
If someone produces a version 3 block that violates the new rules, then miners who haven't upgraded will end up wasting mining power building on that block. This could be used as an expensive way to attack miners who haven't upgraded. It is low risk of happening, since creating an invalid version 3 block costs 25BTC in hashing power and the miner who does it ends up creating an invalid block.
