Looking at the changelog, it appears they have done away with the old revision numbering and are now using the version numbers (10586) that Windows on PCs use. Windows Mobile has also gone the same route. TH2 is also part of the build string of both OSes.

I think this update mainly contains the Windows 10 kernel, hypervisor, and core, as well as the backwards compatibility features and UI. I don't know if the Start screen or other built-in apps are implemented as UWP apps yet, but UWP support is supposed to come sometime, along with full mouse/keyboard support and extension support in Edge. I still don't know if Edge is even in this update or if IE still remains.

EDIT: Edge is in this update, but from a UI perspective, nothing has changed compared to IE. User agent is different though:
