Yes, users will still be able to log in to the OSM website. The way "login with openID", "login with google" (which just uses plain OpenID, "login with facebook" and "login with Microsoft" are set up, it is simply an (additional) alternative to a password. Everything else is identical.

If users specify their own password in addition to using "login with FB/MS", they can simply use that to log-in, if for what ever reason the the service is cut off.

If users haven't specified a password during signup, the system generates a long random password in the background (that no one knows). They can then simply go through the standard password recovery mechanism to obtain a new password.
