Your screenshot is from a Pedigree Resource File, in the Genealogies section, not from the FamilySearch Family Tree (FSFT). https://www.familysearch.org/ark:/61903/2:2:742V-MW4

FamilySearch has adopted an alpha-numeric reference system for different types of records, but the ones used in the PRF are separate to those used in Family Tree. I have found an ID for Mary Magdalene in Family Tree. As illustrated, it is 9HR5-JGD. As in the other program, she is shown as the spouse of Jesus Christ. However, there appear to have been changes since I last viewed these records. "Jesus of Nazareth" now appears to have had his primary name changed to "Jesus Christ" and the bloodline dating from his alleged relationship with Mary has now been removed. I imagine the latter is out of respect for the views of many Family Tree users who would have found such a pedigree chart highly offensive in relation to their beliefs.
