Oil pressure doesn't increase with the quantity of oil in the crank case. What happens is the crank shaft will hit and splash the high oil level around causing it to be airrated and foam. Thats bad because foaming or airratted oil doesn't lubracate well. Excessive engine ware can happen when that condition is present.
Drain the oil and put the correct amount in.
