Operation of the firstboot script depends on having a GUI installed. It doesn't get executed if you installed just the base system.
actually, I haven't installed RHEL or CentOS v 6.x at all - just going on recollection but even if it boots text mode, it still seemed to run a firstboot configuration program.
That hasn't been my experience, and the RHEL 6 Installation Guide says:
"The first time you start your Red Hat Enterprise Linux system in run level 5 (the graphical run level), the FirstBoot tool appears, which guides you through the Red Hat Enterprise Linux configuration."
