Thanks, Aditya. The hack works nicely.

The references/hyperlinks for floats don’t work when the float number is disabled because the necessary attribute for link isn’t set then.
I would call this behavior a bug. After all, hyperlinks work correctly for unnumbered heads (\subject etc.)
\setupinteraction[state=start]
\starttext
\subject[sub:one]{A subject}
\startplacefigure
[
reference=fig:cow.pdf,
title={Figure A},
location={here,nonumber},
]
\externalfigure[cow.pdf][width=.5\textwidth]
\stopplacefigure
In \about[fig:cow.pdf], the hyperlink is not working
In \about[sub:one], the hyperlink is working
\stoptext
\defineconversion[gobble][\gobbleoneargument]
\setupcaption[figure][numberconversion=gobble]
\setuplabeltext[figure=]
\startplacefigure
[ ... location={here}, ...] % Do not add nonumber to location
@Alan, if you need to disable numbering for a few figures, but want hyperlinks to work, you'll need to define a new float environment for those figures (and set the numberconversion and labeltext for that enironment).
