What allows this incredible zooming capacity?
Huge numbers of photos, and then being displayed via an image pyramid - the image is rescaled several times and then each size is split into tiles - as you navigate around the image, only the relevant tiles for the that zoom level are downloaded.
It's pretty standard stuff for viewing hi-res images, quite similar to Google Earth/Maps etc.
