I was wondering how wireshark implements the HTTP filter. Does it just 
look at the destination port only?

The display filter "http" displays all packets handled by the HTTP 
dissector.  The HTTP dissector will work on packets meeting one of these 
criteria:

 - One of the ports from the "TCP Ports" HTTP preference

 - One of the ports from the "SSL/TLS Ports" HTTP preference

 - Another dissector that uses HTTP on a different port such as IPP
