IIUC, "Content ID claims" are not actual DMCA takedown notices (or similar) and thus filing them in bad faith isn't perjury. Youtube's T&Cs likely shield them from liability to a large extent. You might be able to get flagrant repeat offenders on fraud, but I assume it would be a very uphill battle. The actual legal DMCA stuff starts when you dispute the claim and the claimant doubles down with a takedown request, which (again IIUC) could be considered perjury—though, again, likely a very steep hill to climb.
