King James sought out 54 of the best biblical scholars of the day to translate The Bible. 47 men were known for completing the task. They were divided into six groups, each group given a portion of scripture to translate. Every translator translated his section by himself then came together with the other translators of his section to compare their translations.
A good book to find out why the KJV has a reputation of being a superior translation to modern bible versions is "Defending The King James Bible" by D.A. Waite.
