I think it was just the writers way to "villainize" the group further. If they only killed vampires some readers wouldn't be convinced that they need to be taken out because (as Kamilah said in book 2 chapter 13 in the Hall of Triumph scene) vampires have killed a lot of people over the thousands of years they've existed, not all of them are innocent (including at least 3 out of the 4 LIs). But if you see that the Order soldiers are willing to kill humans without question, just because they're among vampires, it shows that they're not righteous, they're not good, they're not willing to make peace so you need to kill them before they kill you because there doesn't seem to be another option. "Two predators, hunting each other. Trapped in a vicious cycle of bloodshed that has no end." as Kamilah said in the said scene.
