As I understand it, you need to do a sort of incremental migration. The first time a legacy user logs in, you login via the User API (to get their old id) - then log them in again under the new Oauth api.
It wont bother most users as they used to periodically having re grant access to apps. dont think you actully get a 'persistent' long term ID from OAuth 2 anyway, just short term access tokens, so will have to create your own id (so may as well use the old user-id as a the unique id) - although can get an email to use for cross reference. (I suppose if they on G+ you can ask for profile URL, which contains a unique id) (note I havent actully done this migration yet, just looked into it.
