I do not know but I think that the 0.00 is not correct.

Maybe shredder saw the following line when it calculated move 59

59.Bd1 Kd5 60.Bf3+ Kc4 61.Bc6 Kxb4 62.Be8 Ka3 63.Bxg6 b4 64.Bf7 Bd5! 65.g6 b3
66.g7 b2 67.g8Q b1Q when white is in big trouble because black can get a mate
attack with the queen and the bishop.

Maybe there is a more simple reason.
I do not know.
