This ownership of copyright gives them the possibility to release the next version of (not-)OpenJDK under a proprietary license, but does not give them a possibility to kill off the current version of OpenJDK as every single user who has received explicit perpetual irrevocable license to use, change and redistribute the current version - so there's always a possibility for a true open source fork.
