It uses the SQL dump output from OOTP2006 and automatically loads your entire OOTP universe into your database. This is essential for anyone building addons for OOTP2006 (i.e. future CATOs or BOSIs). Its also extremely useful (if you know SQL) if you want to create customized reports or get to your data in specific ways. For example, I recently wrote a script to compare my OOTP6 data (using commish joe's exporters/BOSI2) to my OOTP2006 data of the same imported league. I was able to quickly spit out a report of every single player not imported and those who lost positions and get a look into my conversion not possible simply with a eyes on approach.
