Mostly because "file track id" isn't a property of a track and "track number" is (see iTunes dictionary). I agree that you should be able to extract it though. Why not file a bug report on it? <http://developer.apple.com/bugreporter/>
Here's a workaround that should extract it for you.
tell application "iTunes"
set ft to current track
try
ft's file track
on error errMsg
set fTrkId to word 13 of errMsg
end try
end tell
display dialog fTrkId
I used iTunes 4.9 in Mac OS X 10.4.2. If your setup differs you may need to adjust the word count to get the correct id.
