737 Fuel and HYD pump operation

Hi Evryone,
I've been itching to ask this for a while.
On this photo http://www.planepictures.net/netshow.php?id=443145
after shutdown they have all six fuel pumps on but also they have the electric hydraulic pumps on and the engine driven ones off. My understanding is that there is 1 fuel pump to kept on for APU operation and the electric hydraulic pumps should be off and the engine ones on.

they have the main fuel pumps off but the center tank ones on. How odd.
Can anybody explain if this is normal??
Thanks
