I think this is to keep those commands straight :)

I think this way. All NHRP map command are like 'ip nhrp map <priv>
<public>' so that on spokes you have:

ip nhrp map 172.16.1.1 100.1.1.1

to map between priv-public IP address on the hub. And you also have (in
case of mGRE on the spoke) command:

ip nhrp multicast 100.1.1.1

<multicast> is just a keyword specifying priv part.

Similarly on Hub you have:

ip nhrp map multicast dynamic which means send all multicast traffic to
dynamically learnt Public (NBMA) IP addresses of your spokes (from NHRP DB).

I know, this is not enough technical answer :) Also, note that sending
mcast traffic over multipoint interface must have some replication features
enabled. In this case you instruct the router to send mcast traffic to
Hub's Public IP and this must be tunnel destination IP I suppose.
