As we know when T-34s and KV-1 and -2s appered they were delivered in dribs and drabs all over the place. That ment that practically every unit that got them had to develop their own logistics for them, training and so on. Lack of experence with maintenance also forced many to be abandoned.

But WI they were used to equip just a few divisions? Makes sense, oncentrate them in good units, remove old stuff from there and ahve them concentrate on mastering new tanks. The best scenario is of course concentrating jsut one type in one division but even mixing them together would work in 1941 (no brekthroughs and penetrations so differences in speed is not that important).

Effects? SU still takes heavy losses but the front might stop somewhat a bit eastwards. Of course seeing masses of such tanks would prompt Gemrans to speed up their upgrades/new tanks even more. More speed = more teething problems before they are deployed though
