I have owned RV's over 40 years and was also a dealer some years back. In years past shut off pressures in the range of 30 to 30+ or so PSI for demand pump systems were fairly typical. HOWEVER in more recent years I have seen some (not all) pump brands and models increase that shut off pressure. If I recall (would have to go look) my current pump is 50 PSI.
YES provided the plumbing system and piping and fittings are ALL up to par????? it should withstand 60 PSI fine.
Some city water outlets at some RV parks may be HIGH like 70/80 or more PSI which is why I always use a water pressure regulator when I connect that limits the pressure to around 40 to 50 PSI.
NOTE AND WARNING However some RV water systems may be poor quality or over time the splices and fittings etc may have deteriorated plus I have seen those PEX or Gray Polybutelyne tubing fittings and splices (hose barb with crimp ring) start to LEAK grrrrrrrrrrr
BOTTOM LINE 60 PSI doesn't scare me and even decent quality RV piping should handle it just fine, BUT I DONT KNOW YOUR RV AND SURE CANT GUARANTEEE IT. However, if it cant handle 60 PSI it needs some repair or upgrades anyway, because if it cant handle 60 PSI it could sure have a problem eventually even at 40 PSI. I cant say what pipe your RV used, but wouldn't be surprised if it wasn't initially rated at like 100 PSI or more!!!!!!!!!! and if so and if its all okay, 60 PSI is not a problem
GIVE IT A TRY I like my RV;s that have had 40 to 50 PSI water pressure much more then the old ones that were 30 or so.
Maybe conduct some sort of a pressure test prior to the new pumps installation???

Today's Featured Article - Product Review - by Staff. When we finally checked out the 3000 PSI North Star, the whole story chaned. This unit was equipped with an 11 HP Honda engine with fuel shutoff, adjustable flow and optional syphon degreaser dispenser. It didn't have a pressure release or electric start to facilitate easy starting but according to the instructions, simply pulling on the trigger while cranking was sufficient. This method of starting proved more than adequate and kept the cost down on the unit. It had all the important
