I have noticed this too, at least with logrotate not running. I thought this was because the reboot happens right after, or during, unattended-upgrades. So I set the time to reboot to 7:30 AM in /etc/apt/apt.conf/50unattended-upgrades to give the rest of cron.daily time to run. However logrotate still did not run. And I assume neither did the rest of cron.daily. I believe unattended-upgrades issues shutdown -r 07:30 in my case. So I wondered if the impending shutdown was blocking logrotate, and the rest of cron.daily. However searching the Internet I could not confirm that theory. So I too think cron.daily/apt should be the last thing run in cron.daily. One more issue that may be related. After the reboot /var/run/reboot-required and /var/run/reboot-required.pkgs still exist and the "*****System restart required****" message appearers at logoin.

(To be more precise, none that are alphabetically after the 'apt' script, which is most of them.) It would be good if unattended-upgrades did the reboot from /etc/cron.daily/zzz-unattended-upgrade-reboot, so the other scripts get a chance to run first.
