You can not create a file with execute bit on.

I'm implementing some security enhancements and I'm having problems
with setting the umask correctly. When I set the umask to 077 and I go
to create files, the permsions come out rw------ (600) instead of 700.
Can anyone explain to me why my default file creation mode is 600 and
why I can't use umask to get a rwx------ default? What can I do to get
the execute bit set?
TIA
