@user2754799 has the correct method, but I've made a couple of small changes so that it answers my question. If they want to edit their answer with this solution I'll accept it.

d <- as.integer(as.POSIXct(strptime("2015-01-01","%Y-%m-%d"))) * 1000
## or more concisely
## d <- as.integer(as.POSIXct("2015-01-01")) * 1000
data <- mong$find(paste0('{"dte":{"$gt": { "$date" : { "$numberLong" : "', d, '" } } } }'))
