If you really want to override the existing definition,
then isn't it a better fix to:
\let\colon\relax
\DeclareMathSymbol{\colon}{\mathpunct}{legacymaths}{"3A}
The first line here will fool LaTeX's checking whether the macro-name
already has an expansion.
Furthermore, it works even if there is no expansion already defined.
