It's not continuation. An independent Scotland would be a new nation state; the only way they could claim continuity would be to embrace the idea that they were actually decolonising England. Now, you might point to the Stuart accession in 1603 as evidence that - contrary to appearances - it was England that was dependent on Scotland; but if that's true, then it rather takes the wind out of any claims about Scottish independence.
