I'm thinking 75amps is the rating of the panel with all circuits combined. I'm guessing you're not using relays on anything and the switch panel has fuses and they are carrying the total loads. I wouldn't want a panel that's lit up when the car is off but I guess that's how it's made.
If you want to shut it down you can do as Alan Nyhus stated or use a continuous duty solenoid/relay. Cole Hersee makes quality solenoids and switches. |

My battery is in the trunk with a cutoff switch, but the main power coming into the cabin still runs through a 150 amp circuit breaker just to be on the safe side. Since it can be operated like a switch manually you could mount it on the dash or somewhere accessible and use that as your cutoff.
I used to run the charge wire from my alternator through the cabin to my batteries and had a circuit breaker on the floor next to my seat to cut power from the battery to the alternator when the car was off. They make great high amp switches and have good solid posts, too. Dale Dale
