      This works back to 2.6:

      MongoDB Enterprise > db.runCommand({createIndexes : "java2757", indexes : [{key : {score : 1}, name : "myScoreIdx" }] })
{
	"createdCollectionAutomatically" : true,
	"numIndexesBefore" : 1,
	"numIndexesAfter" : 2,
	"ok" : 1
}
MongoDB Enterprise > db.runCommand({dropIndexes: "java2757", index : {score : 1}} )
{ "nIndexesWas" : 2, "ok" : 1 }

      It's not clear from the documentation that index can be anything other than the index name or "*".
