Anyway, what do I need to do? Get within 3nm and speed of 1kt or so? Which is the button to click to actually pick up the passengers - same button as rescuing downed pilots?

If memory serves Me correctly... it is a sub mission, aka an... addendum, to your primary one.
Is set to the, not to the Mariveles docks but to the other one, in the harbor entrance... South docks... I think, there on Corregidor Isl., that dock.
Am not, in game/sim, at the moment... to cross check that, but... I do recall getting that sub add on mission to a primary one I had though that was neing in the Convoy College area. Had run short on torps, as I'd crossed paths with a combo task force/convoy 1/2 way between Manilla & Apari, headed
SSE I wanna say... radioed in & was given the green light to sink targets of opportunity. I did so, got enough sank to clear it out & withdrew to continue heading on to My primary assigned goal.
While in the College area, ran across 1 nice target but it took a couple of torps to sink it & by then, was running a bit short. so... I beat it back towards Manilla to restock, choosing to hit Mari there to do so & was intending to head back to the primary to finish that out.
That got short circuited by getting that same message of extraction, or 1 similar to it. Can't rightly recall which, but remember enough to know it was in that same general vicinity.
Know that even after completing that add on... there is no drop off assigned to dump them off your sub... unless that, "oversight" was reworked in the latest update for FotRS...
Any who... hope this info helps.
