Pretty sure its only 330's actually built as freighters that have the 'bump' as you mention.
The reason it is there is to make the floor level for easier loading/unloading.
The converted 330's have an electric cargo moving system installed to overcome the nose up attitude on ground.
Happy to be corrected on this 1.
