I'm obviously no pro, but I believe it has to do with your ring finger. On your normal release you're putting the pressure on your middle finger, but to get the ball to hook right (for right-handers), you put the pressure on your ring finger and bring the hand that way.
Sorry for the terrible illustration, but I hope you get the idea. I've only pulled this off a few times.
