I called out to Steamtown just now and spoke with a Park Service Ranger on site and asked this question. He said that they've been asked this a number of times. He said that it is the 60th bridge on the DL&W from Hoboken, that's why it is so named. Hope this answers the question. As far as being "provable", there must be some technical drawing set that will prove out the bridge numbers along the route.
