Compare the output with e.g.

  systemctl -t service --all

sshd and similar services [still] ship System V/LSB compatible init scripts,
whereas systemd knows about services beyond that, which are not accessible
with chkconfig.

There are also a few incompatibilities between chkconfig --list and/or --level
and systemd. http://bugz.fedoraproject.org/chkconfig
For example,

# runlevel 
N 5
# chkconfig sshd on
# chkconfig --level 5 sshd off
# reboot

and systemd will start sshd nevertheless. A "chkconfig sshd off" would
have disabled the service for all runlevels, and systemd would have
accepted that.
