I tried explaining it this way yesterday and someone accurately pointed out that the actual local time in Greenwich, England is 6 hours ahead of CDT, but that is because Greenwich now uses a different timezone. Up until 1972 it used GMT (or UTC or Z).

Is it because GMT uses daylight savings but Zulu time is Zulu time?

Yes, I believe so. If you need a standard time, daylight savings really throws things off. UTC is standard year round.
