Have you checked to see that the proper NAT module is loaded in the kernel at the time when the iptables rules are loaded? At least for diagnostic purposes I would try adding a delay in the startup. You might even find that adding an lsmod into the startup sequence (for diagnostic purposes) there would fix the problem. I have not had a chance to look at the scripts that do this in CentOS 6.
