I don't see how the British Embassy will know you need a NZ visa unless you tell them you do. To them, you are on your way 'home'.
However, they should be able to tell you how to take care of this.

If the visas are spoiled, or if the British HC keeps the ruined passport, you will have to get new visas. No one will transfer them automatically. You will have to do it yourself.
While you're applying for the replacement passport, ask the Brit Consul where to go and how to replace your NZ visa; they will know.
