I'm going to go speculate wildly here, so bear with me. Some of the posters claim that they can see unstable locations and vortices on the Innsmouth board. If so, those six Deep One Uprising tokens are probably used in the same way as the Dunwich Horror tokens, except I imagine that when the Deep One Uprising track is filled the Investigators immediately lose the game.
Now, what if the raid on Innsmouth is represented in the game by a Rumor? A rumor which is difficult to pass, perhaps requiring multiple things to be done. If you fail, the Deep One Uprising takes place and you lose. If you succeed, not only are you rewarded with Clue tokens, but you basically kill the Innsmouth board. The Uprising trak will never advance, maybe even no new gates will be able to open on the Innsmouth board for the rest of the game.
Or maybe the raid will be represented by a Mythos card which returns all monsters on the Innsmouth board to the cup, but that seems so much less interesting to me.
