Well, it's your call. But IMHO you are violating the GNU coding standards:
"You should identify each release with a pair of version numbers..."
You made a new *release* with a new license.
FWIW, other GNU projects releasing for GPLv3 updates have so far done the
sane thing and bumped the version number.
