Unless those rings are pinned in place on the piston so they can't rotate like some older motorcycle engines are, then the way you line up the ring gaps when ya put them in will have NO bearing on how they're lined up when ya pull them back out. Rings are designed to rotate in their grooves as the engine runs to help keep carbon cleaned out of the grooves. My guess is he just lined em up to inspect them and snapped the pics.
