Biblical literalists are not so renowned for their methodological precision when it comes to dating. I expect that the discrepancy will not pose any serious problem for them whatsoever. They'll merely adjust the dates accordingly to whatever best suits their primary source, which in this case is the Table of Nations from Genesis 5.
