I don't know what to tell you Mike, SQL Server doesn't care, it works either way
SELECT * FROM PropImage WHERE 20 = PropertyID works exactly the same as PropertyID = 20 It's just common convention that we use PropertyID = 20 In the internal SQL engine it's just running a logical comparison against the statement itself. SQL Server is pretty darn intelligent. Try it. Now all that being said, I still wouldn't recommend doing things that way, but it does work.
