I'll try to get a reply from Nikon, but I suspect they will not be
helpful.  This camera has both a serial line download protocol and a
USB protocol.  The core serial-line version protocol is the same one
used in many digital cameras (Itojun, remember the camedia protocol?
This is yet another one of those cameras!)  That protocol has been
under NDA for over 3 years now.

If I were to take a guess, I'd assume that they simply put the old
rs-232 version of the protocol over a USB pipe.
