Default Re pictures in spam

I searched google and it mentioned !cid - but I couldn't find "what
exactly is happening?"

I just got some spam from a neighbor that has gone to 100 or 150 people
before me in maybe 6 to: groups. I usually just delete but this one was
so convoluted I stopped my network, scanned with NAV etc and kept
opening the email attachment to see how long it was.

Eventually I got to a patriotic photo and some text.
I right clicked on the photo (suspecting some spyware) to see its
properties and it shows:
!cid_007201c71d8b$d71dc2e0$1d96da18@jwhalen

and I'm wondering - what does that mean ?
When everyone opens it does it send something to jwhalen ?
any online pinters
Thanks
