60,000 is a bottom estimate that makes sure it doesn't break on you. You should be able to go to 100,000 but it's like anything else, no garuntees. Has it had any oil on it from the valve cover? How hard do you drive it? The older it get, the harder the rubber and hard accelerations can strip the teeth. Somewhere between 80 and 100 it should be done. After 100 it will at some point leave you stranded.
