It's confusing at first, but if you look at the rc?.d directories, you will see that all the entries are symlinks to files in /etc/init.d. You (or dpkg) can add additional entries and create new links with update-rc.d. For instance, I created /etc/init.d/local for customized stuff and ran update-rc.d on it and it was then linked to the appropriate rc?.d location.
