First, the Coordinator is not forced to resort to key reuse. It could also issue transactions from a new Coordinator hash (and anybody who did not update their iri would see no new milestones any more)

That being said, a new milestone is issued once per minute, meaning 1440 milestones per day. And during manual snapshots, the milestone number is rounded to the next thousand.

At the moment, the current milestone is 928020928,020, so there are 120556120,556 left, which would last for about 83 days (or a few less in case manual snapshots happen), so the IOTA Foundation should add a second Coordinator hash before March 11, 2019.
