Notice how the "state" is the same: both your Hyper_L and Super_L keys
are assigned to the same modifier (presumably "Hyper").
Take a look at the output of "xmodmap".

Yes, X11 has an additional level of mapping from what you expect: the
name of the key does not in itself determine if it's a modifier and
which modifier it is.  Instead, there's an additional mapping from keys
to modifiers.
