Please do not forget that hashcat supports loading of different/special file types like pwdump, linux shadow, passwd, DCC, NetNTLM, nsldaps etc.
Therefore you actually only need to specify that you want to crack a -m 500 hash (md5crypt) and the HLFMT detection routine will automatically figure out that in this particular case it is a shadow file.
And yes, md5crypt is not just md5. I'm not sure why so many people just say "I have a md5" if it is md5crypt instead etc
