I think the correct key is mapillary (without the ":id"), see
https://wiki.openstreetmap.org/wiki/Key:mapillary
I also think it would be better to upload "useful" pictures to
wikimedia commons, which is more suited for media with an open
license. In that case you can use image and wikimedia_commons tags.
Look e.g. at this church: https://www.openstreetmap.org/way/59396138
