Like - Jack's father said - they all died sometime - some long after Jack and some before. So once all of them had died they created this perfect world so that they could find each other in the afterlife. So essentially - everything that happened on the island, actually happened. We don't know what happened after Jack died and before the remaining alive ones died - presumably, Ben and Hurley protected the island, Kate/Sawyer/Clare etc all got off on the airplane that Lapidus flew and lived whatever lift. Then when they all died they found each other in this perfect 'reality'
Hmm, but why did Ben tell Hurley that people not being able to leave the Island was Jacob's doing. Hurley could do it differently. That led me to believe he created the little place in heaven, or wherever, I suppose it's no place, since he was the new "Jacob." That's why they weren't all stuck on the island in Whisper form.

God damn it, I'm going to have to let it sink in and watch it again.
