How are the FPC RTL documentations generated? I wanted to see if I could generate .docsets files from them also.

You simply call
make rtl.pdf
for the PDF version or
make rtl.chk
for the HTML version.
The README.DOCS file contains the following:

make rtl.chk
make fcl.chk

You simply call
make rtl.pdf
for the PDF version or
make rtl.chk
and the fixdocs.sh shell script for the CHM version.
