looking at the source code (GUI/Client/vtkPVRenderView.cxx) clarifies this:

void vtkPVRenderView::SetCameraState(float p0, float p1, float p2,
                                     float fp0, float fp1, float fp2,
                                     float up0, float up1, float up2)
{
  vtkCamera *cam;

  // This is to trace effects of loaded scripts.
  this->GetTraceHelper()->AddEntry(
    "$kw(%s) SetCameraState %.3f %.3f %.3f  %.3f %.3f %.3f  %.3f %.3f
%.3f",
    this->GetTclName(), p0, p1, p2, fp0, fp1, fp2, up0, up1, up2);

  cam = this->GetRenderer()->GetActiveCamera();
  cam->SetPosition(p0, p1, p2);
  cam->SetFocalPoint(fp0, fp1, fp2);
  cam->SetViewUp(up0, up1, up2);

  this->EventuallyRender();
}
