Based on this article (i don't have a Kindle Fire to test this theory), i'm guessing the browser has custom CA's for the SPDY proxy so that the SPDY proxy can spoof any domain through the magic of SNI. If all this is true, then it's pretty evil.
I don't think this is correct, although I can't describe how Silk actually works.

You might be able to run HTTP CONNECT over SPDY.
