I have spreadsheets lots and lots of spreadsheets.
How do my players? Mostly every time it comes up, the same way people IRL deal with dating schemes they're unfamiliar with, by trying to convert to the one they are familiar with. If you pass a synagogue and see a cornerstone that says the building was constructed in 5707 do you instantly know what that means? Or if it is relevant some reason do you look it up and find out the conversion, Sept. 1946 through Sept. 1947 CE for the interested.
Which is why having calendars in RW would make it so much better. Automatic linking of events with dates, and conversion between calendars, and a combined searchable timeline would make the campaigns history be much more a part of the whole world.
