Yes, it is right. By default each alias inherits the settings of base interface unless overridden.Or alternatively you can configure the route in an route-eth0 file within the network-scripts directory instead of as a GATEWAY= setting in the ifcfg-eth0 file, and the route specified in route-eth0 is not applied to aliases.
To prevent this for the gateway setting add the following to the base interface configuration ifcfg-eth0:
NO_ALIASROUTING=yes

To set a default gateway through eth0 set the contents of route-eth0 to:
default via x.x.x.x
Where x.x.x.x is replaced with your default gateway.
Per /usr/share/doc/initscripts-7.42.2/sysconfig.txt:
/etc/sysconfig/network-scripts/route-<interface-name>
Contains lines that are arguments to "/sbin/ip route add"
For example:
192.168.2.0/24 dev ppp0
adds a network route to the 192.168.2.0 network through ppp0.
