I don’t know about The Sound of Music (I’ve only seen clips) but supercalifragilisticexpialidocious was popularized here (and maybe elsewhere) by Mary Poppins.
I mix those two movies up, too, so you’re at least not alone! They’re both older movies about awesome/magical ladies taking care of kids, if I remember correctly, with lots of music and singing. So I get it.
I haven’t seen it until I was 28.
It’s not very popular in Europe, especially DACh, because it’s apologetic for Austrians, showing them as victims of the Nazis, rather then enthusiasts.
It is said to be a propaganda piece made for that but idk
Used to be known by pretty much every kid in at least the US.
(Edited to clarify that maybe outside the US also)
Then the french equivalent would be « anticonstitutionnellement » which is the longuest word in the french language (counting lettres).
Was The Sound of Music only popular in the US? I’d assumed it was also popular in Europe given the setting.
Also, this word was an exercise in the gifted classes I got put in in elementary school. The idea was to try to spell it without looking it up.

Am I mixing up the movies maybe? It’s quite early here so my brain may not be working at 100%.
