I wonder if they dismantled the SuperHub one piece at a time and shipped it piece by piece to its new location, or if they just attached massive Engines to it and made a hyperspace jump (imagine the size of the wormhole!)
I reckon they do it one piece.

Engines are attached and the stations fly themselves to their destination. The engines are then removed. It's all in the wiki/readme.
