In fact, Festinger helped to connect the Millerite movement to JWs when he spoke of (drawing a blank on his name, starts with an "S"). Anyway there is a prominent early Witness mentioned in the book who was a Millerite first. Something like George Storos.
Why the bookstudy change won't affect as much as you think, tho big!

My personal experience is that there are those that are so indoctrinated by the this religion/cult that even a flat out lie, incorrect belief, change in doctrine that is a complete 180 from before, will somehow be justified in their mind. I have talked to my own family and even when confronted with things they know make zero sense, they fall on "trust in Jehovah" and they continue on.
They use defense mechanisms in this religion like no one's business.
