Nope. You should generally avoid setting default_statistics_target too
high anyway; leave it where it is and use ALTER TABLE ... ALTER COLUMN
... SET STATISTICS to raise the targets on columns where you're seeing
bad statistics estimates.

Also make sure autovaccum is running frequently so it keeps the stats up
to date.
