After applying that, all clips will be trimmed down to 2 seconds duration.

The quickest way to do this is to select all of the stills you want to change the duration of to change, right click the selecion, select speed duration, change the duration up or down and make sure Ripple Edit Shifting Trailing Clips is checked.
