Which other libraries has NYT used, or do they have something custom?

I’m impressed also with what I’ve seen, but I don’t know what they do.

D3 is, in fact, their "something custom". Mike Bostock developed it while working at NYT.

I did not know that! That explains a lot!

It is not true. D3 was built in Stanford in Jeff Heer's lab
