The Update installs into a separate space on the Hard drive, and only if and when it installs 100%, does it reboot the CIC and start using the new version.
This is correct.

BTW, my first attempt bailed out halfway through the third thumb drive. I wasn't paying attention to the progress and thought it was done but when I checked the map version it was still 2012.

When I started the process again, it knew how far along it had gotten in loading and, while it still required the first 2 thumb drives, it did not re-prompt for MSC code and zipped through the first 2 drives in about 5-10 seconds each and picked up in the third with progress at ~92%.
