What exactly are you trying to do?

Default-originate creates a default route for your neighbor, not you. And local-prefs are ONLY for you, not your neighbors. So what you're actually doing makes no sense.

If you want your neighbor to do something with that default, like set localpref to 150, you'll have to set a community, not localpref. Then on the other router, in the import route-map for that bgp, check for the community you set, and set loclpref if you have a match.
