Once you exclude the image from the Gallery, you can select it as the Featured Image and it will appear as a header on the Page.

Using excludes in a Gallery is explained here: http://en.support.wordpress.com/images/gallery/#gallery-shortcode and a demo showing this here http://agallerydemo.wordpress.com/2011/03/08/gallery-with-excluded-image/

Just do nothing other than upload it and select it as Featured Image. Then it should only appear once, unless there's a bug in the theme.
