ldapmodify(1) can request any valid LDAP update operation.
Unforunately, there is no single LDAP operation that can
perform what you want.  You can, of course, write a single
LDIF describing 100k modify operations and hand that
to ldapmodify(1).  Or you can dump the DB to LDIF, edit
the LDIF as desired, and load into a fresh DB using
ldapadd(1) or slapadd(8).
