JPEG EXIF Thumbnail meta-data can be extracted by IM, but it is not handled by IM.

You could add an extra step to your existing IM command so that it also generates a thumbnail of your cropped image and then replace the thumbnail image in the metadata. However, I don't think that last step can be done with IM so you'll have to use another program to do it. The docs for jhead say that it can replace a thumbnail.
