What in the jump pack special rule would motivate that extra die for the destroyer lord?

Unless the unit has special rules giving an extra charge die, neither Jump for Jetpack units do not get one. Jump units get a re-roll to their assault distance and get HoW, and Jetpack units get Relentless.
But, if the unit includes mixed unit types, the re-roll to the charge range usually would not be allowed.

Unless you mean the extra die is for HoW. The lord does not get to roll a Hammer of Wrath roll, as it does not have a jump pack. It can shoot before assaulting, though.

Pertinent.

Spoiler:
Q: How does a unit consisting of a mix of Cavalry, Bike, Jump Pack and Infantry models move, Run, Turbo-boost and charge? Do they all use their respective rules while maintaining squad coherency?

A: Yes. Models move individually, so in the Movement phase each model in this unit can move up to their maximum movement allowance so long as the unit is in unit coherency at the end of the move. If the unit elects to Run, no models in the unit may shoot. The unit doesn’t benefit from the Cavalry model’s Fleet rule, as that only applies if every model in the unit has the Fleet rule. If the unit Runs, the Bike may Turbo-boost, but must finish its move in unit coherency. When charging, the Jump model may use its jump pack (if it did not do so in the Movement phase) to re-roll the charge distance – however that model, and only that model, must use the new distance rolled.

Yes. The Lord will have to use the previous roll.

I stand corrected. Thanks for the ruling, Col.
