Given that aws just built DocumentDB, I am not sure if the licensing changing anything. I would even say that this choice actually hurts MongoDB because I am less likely to choose it since they have less practical hosting solutions.

If Oracle wins against Google, presumably DocumentDB would be infringing in the same manner, as DocumentDB also is a drop-in replacement adhering to the same API.

I still didn't decide if it would be a good a or bad thing actually.
