I don't think there is any magnitude of assistance DPRK could provide to Russia that would justify this price.
North Korea has been stockpiling munitions since the 1950s.
Ammo does not have a infinite shelf life tho. Artilery grenades can be stored for two to three decades at the most.
Indeed, however I would expect that Russia would want to restore relations to the levels they were at during the Soviet times. DPRK was a major industrial hub for USSR, and given that Russian economy is now running hot, they will likely be interested in leveraging the industrial base in DPRK and the skilled workforce.
You forget their mastery of necromancy.
