  perhaps try single quotes:
  00 20 * * * 'find /web/mapimage -name "*.png" -exec rm -f  {} \;' >> =
/tmp/cronmap.log 2>&1

  failing that, try get a log of what is going on:
  00 20 * * * find /web/mapimage -name "*.png" -exec rm -f  {} \; >> =
/tmp/cronmap.log 2>&1

  failing that, go back to basics:
  41 22 * * * /bin/date >> /tmp/crondate.log

  and confirm cron is working.
