It was always my understanding that the pictures were more for anti-phising purposes than for multifactor authentication. In other words, if you go to a site and see the picture you originally picked out, you're probably on the real site. If you see another picture, you're on a phishing site (because the phishing site doesn't know which picture you originally chose).
