75 million isn't that high - autovacuum will automatically look at it
once above autovacuum_max_freeze_age (defaulting to 200 million).  If
you really for some reason need to make it have a lower datfrozenxid
(why?), you'd need to update its pg_database entry to allow connections,
connect to it, vacuum it, and change datallowconn back.
