Hey Eric,
Not quite sure why they spec such a high value control. The one thing that comes to mind is the it does act as a bit of a load for the phono. The higher the input load the better the frequency response with a crystal cartridge. The tap is for audio frequency compensation (tone) at low volume levels.
Given the type of set and size of the speaker I would think that if you did change out the control the difference would be negligible.
