Hello bem81SL,
Welcome to Apple Support Communities!
If we understand your post correctly, you want to know if the pictures you save to a hidden folder on your iPhone still sync to iCloud and are hidden in iCloud as well. We'd like to help!
The article that you came from, Hide photos on your iPhone, iPad, iPod touch, or Mac, does provide some good information.
"When you hide photos and videos, they move to the Hidden album, so they don't appear in your Library, in other albums, or in the Photos widget on your Home Screen. With iOS 14, you can turn off the Hidden album, so the photos are completely hidden. You can unhide photos and videos and turn the Hidden album back on whenever you want."
Hidden photos do get uploaded to iCloud Photo Library. The Hidden album would not be visible in iCloud as well.
Thank you for using Apple Support Communities.
Take care!
