I don't think the wording is incredibly strange:

Climb on R-330 AYT to 1250'

means stay on the AYT 330 radial until getting to at least 1250' and

then turn LEFT (not before D5.0 AYT) climbing to 2700' proceed to VOR then TOPUZ and hold.

means don't start the left turn until 5D AYT and climb to 2700'.

There are two qualifiers for the left turn: above 1250' AND beyond 5D. 2700' is the "block" altitude as it specifies: climbing to 2700'

I've had a look at some non-Jepp charts and they have 1250' as a condition, not a stop height. Also, you've got to inject some common sense - would *you* level off at 1250' and head into the hills if you were doing this for real...?
