This is from a Forbes article about Woodward's book at the time:
President Donald Trump claimed to journalist Bob Woodward that he had overseen the creation of a new U.S. nuclear weapons system, saying, We have stuff that you havent ever seen or heard about,as the two discussed tensions between the United States and North Korea.
I have built a nuclear a weapons system that nobodys ever had in this country before. We have stuff that you havent even seen or heard about. We have stuff that Putin and Xi have never heard about before. Theres nobody what we have is incredible, Trump said.

In other interviews Woodward confirmed there was some kind of secret nuclear weapon system, but he couldn't get details. He did say that those he confirmed it with were surprised that Trump had disclosed that information to Woodward.
Seems like Trump really wanted to tell someone about that system. It probably kills him that he can't brag about it.
My guess is that he took documents related to that.
