I guess I'm just confused as to what parts of the police conversion process is beneficial to the gun's value, vs. being detrimental.

Beneficial:
-in the condition and any additions it left Police re-work with
-unit markings
-presence of matching unit marked accessories, like tool and holster
Detriment-
-anything missing from above
-all the things that affect a "normal" luger, like condition, matching
If one compares the "value" of a "police" luger to an unmodified luger of the same vintage- the police pistol usually sells at a discount to the average guy; but to a police collecor there is another whole set of "rarieties" and "desirable mfgs and dates".
Never a simple answer - JMHO.
