That's a 51% attack, since the transactions are legitimately anyone-can-spend, as enforced by virtually all full nodes.
If the attack were interpreted as a softfork, that would not only mean miners get to dictate the protocol, it would also mean almost nobody runs a real full node (ie, enforcing ALL the rules). In other words, a fully centralized system.
