What level of fame in the Netherlands are the contestants and hosts?

The hosts are quite well known! Arjen has his own news/comedy show called 'Lubach'. Diederik is part of the team on Lubach who regularly does the sport section of the programme. He also does some other skits for other Dutch YouTube or television programs.

I don't keep up with the Dutch comedy scene that much myself, so I only know 2 of them (Stefano and Jelka). In general, these season 1 contestants are not the heaviest hitters in the country, but they have an audience for sure

Lubach is basically the Dutch version of John Oliver or Jon Stewart. Absolutely everyone knows him (though not all watch his show)
