I guess it is not onlt a matter of the server restarting or not. Since the shortlink is identified with 6-letter lower-case chararacters, with high probability you will get a collision after 20000.
Regarding youtube, i do not have a youtube account so i can not try by myself, but i bet the culprit is the &, which is used to separate variables sent to the server. SInce only the first variable (named z) seems absolutely necessary, you can try by removing what remains, that is trnasform

I guess it is not onlt a matter of the server restarting or not. Since the shortlink is identified with 6-letter lower-case chararacters, with high probability you will get a collision after 20000.20000 (birthday paradox).
