Looks like you can't use `USD` but you can use `$` or any other symbol representation. we have this issue for formatting in the visualization that's related as well [[Lens] Enable custom prefix and suffix for Y axis range values · Issue #88402 · elastic/kibana · GitHub](https://github.com/elastic/kibana/issues/88402)
