the Freezeinng of Europe will not cause large scale death, because it won't happen in the "Day After Tomorrow" sense. It will be geologically lightening fast, but still not so fast that people wont at first try to adapt and then eventually decide to migrate south.

The biggest conflict will be if Europeans decide they need to leave Europe. Then they either migrate to emptier regions like Russia, US and Canada, South America - not all of which will necessarily be welcoming - or they move to Africa.

Starvation is likely to be the biggest killer as traditionally grown crops fail.

As far as Holland goes, you should be aware that the Rabobank owns land about 8 times the size of Holland in the middle of the US. ABN Amro is one of the biggest landowners in South America and a surprisingly large number of the Dutch own mobile homes (yóou see them in Germany every summer).
