The ZPID is just an internal record number for Zillow's database.  It means nothing outside of Zillow.

All property lookups are done by address.  If you clicked on something based on map location, it may be located wrong as there is no exact method of determining a Geocode yet.  (Commercial GPS units are only accurate to about ±50 feet in each direction, assuming they can "see" at least 3 satellites.  If it is your home, you can claim it (look it up by address first, or go to your profile page (my zillow link in upper right corner of this page) then "listing" in the left column), and then set a "make me move" to enable editing the location by dragging it on the map.

Remember that the aerial view provided by Pictometry International Corp via Microsoft Bing's website only shows based on the Geocode used, not any specific house or address.  You can post any pictures you want to your home details page if you claim your house.

If the info for your address doesn't match your property, you can edit it; or if it really looks like the wrong property, use the "report a problem" button on the Edit pull-down menu under the lead photo.
