Hello Mike,
Thank you for contacting support.
Actually that file is a "Gerber file" with a bunch of "Square" polygons and not a Drill file. To create a drill file from a Gerber, you need to do the following:
1. Convert those "square polygons" to round flashes. Flashes are required when converting to Drill becauase they have a Center & Width (just like drill holes).
2. Then convert that Gerber file to Drill.
Here's a quick tutorial movie:
