I'm not sure they are supposed to pick up any items. They spawn like that.
"As of Minecraft 1.2.3, they [the zombies] also have a chance of spawning with a Pumpkin or Jack o' Lantern on their head (especially around Halloween), wearing a random type of armor, or wielding an iron Sword or Shovel."
Actually, also from Minecraft's wiki:
"Zombies have a chance of spawning with the ability to pick up items."
