Mmmm, pizza. 
I did some fact-checking with the readme.txt files (where available), and I found the following:

The Search for Milli Vanilli is the first D-Mod ever released, the minimum Dink version required (according to the readme) is 1.01, and it even works with the demo.
The Scar of David is the first non-RTSoft D-Mod ever released. Its readme file lists 1.03 as minimum Dink version. The readme.txt also explicitly states that it was, at the time, the only D-Mod besides Milli Vanilli.
Mystery Island was later; it uses some DinkC features that didn't exist until Dink 1.05. It was included on the CD from which I got Dink (good ol' freeware collection CDs), and I distinctly remember Dinking in 2000. This was with Dink 1.06.

Sources: readme.txt of Milli Vanilli and Scar of David. dinkc.chm, the "sp_picfreeze()" page. The readme.txt of Mystery Island is less useful for determining its release date.
