i.e., that it's really an AZW6 and not an AZW3 file. The work-around is to download the book from Amazon via Kindle for PC (or from an older Kindle (I'm using an old Kindle Touch that they haven't updated the firmware to yet to handle the format)) instead of the Kindle you're using, and import the book from there into Calibre.
Downloaded it for my Kindle Keyboard and it imported into my Calibre library perfectly, thanks for pointing me in the correct/successful direction. Much less time consuming than my method!
