to the hub

refers to the depth of the needle penetration since this is an IM injection

See for example the instructions to a KENDALL Needle Unwinder:

FR: UTILISATION DU DÉVISSEUR – D’une main, introduire l’aiguille dans l’ouverture circulaire et faire glisser la garde de l’aiguille dans la fente appropriée.

EN: TO USE UNWINDER – USING ONE HAND, insert needle into the circular opening and slide hub of needle to the proper slot.

up to the hilt

Intra- muscular "AINSI" up to the hilt (of the needle).
