Your key name should not start with a number. Javascript identifiers should not start with a number.

If the "1" that is a string gets used as a name for a variable in javascript, then it will be wrong. I'm pretty sure that's my point. Identifiers in javascript such as variable names and 'id's for HTML elements are not supposed to start with a number. I suspect that applies to names used as identifiers in arrays too.
