psychobirdgirl(me):

So that implies then that Hagrid is extra skilled at apparation, 
even though it is illegal for him to perform magic and he was never 
very good at it anyway.  This leads me to the conclusion that 
Dumbledore made him disappear; further conclusion, Dumbledore has a 
way of watching people from afar and using his magic on them.

I never thought there was a question about this - IMO, Hagrid simply had a 
Portkey, provided him by Dumbledore.
