No, "Revision" is different from "Id". "Id" expands to the long file 
id including the file name, the latest checkin date, the revision 
number and the user who checked it in. "Revision" (and its synonym 
"Rev") expands to the revision number only. Most of the files I have 
looked at do not show the correct revision number in the 
DECLARE_SOURCE lines, which makes these lines useless.

Just as "Id", the "Revision" keyword needs to be enabled explicitly on 
a per-file basis in svn. Using auto-props it can be done automatically 
for new files.

It also seems that the files were initially added to the repository 
with an expanded Revision value "$Revision: 662 $" present instead of 
"$Revision$" - I do not know whether that will cause any problems. 
Probably not, so I guess, just enabling the Revision keyword will do.
Not a big deal anyway, but since the DECLARE_SOURCE lines are present 
in so many files we might just as well try and get them right. ;-)
