I don't think you are correct. I believe Hilton gift cards are issued by Hilton ( or if not at least they show up as Hilton purchases and get the correct number of points (12X for Surpass)) and there are reports that they do work for the Amex Hilton Surpass $50 quarterly credit.
No idea if it will work for the OP on the AMEX offer but
