Just look at the HTTP headers that get set (e.g. using Firefox's Live
HTTP Headers extension) or deduce it from your configuration.
By default the Shib SP will set path=/ and the domain is your
webserver's FQDN as seen from the client.

Equipped with those two you can loop over all existing cookies (or
maybe limiting it to ones starting with '_shibsession') and set
'expires' to a date in the past.

Plenty of results from a web search on 'javascript delete all cookies'.
