It shouldn't do.
We create custom profiles for 4 colour black & white images and every
image is tagged before being imported into InDesign.
If InDesign converted those images when we output the PDFs then it
would hose our workflow. The CMYK values *always* match the values of
the original images - there is no conversion.
InDesign may well tag the whole PDF with whatever output profile
you've chosen, but the original colour values are retained on images
whether they are tagged or untagged if you opt to "preserve CMYK
numbers".
