This is not correct. It plots the curve for a hypothetical subject with x=
mean of each covariate.
This is NOT the "average survival" of the data set. Imagine a cohort made up
of 60 year old men and their 10 year old grandsons: the expected survival of
this cohort does not look that for a 35 year old male.
