Did you verify that both version are accidentally installed (i.e. you have two Firefox installation folders).

It is possible that the older Firefox 60 is a 32-bit version and installed in a different location. If that is the case then you can uninstall this version. Note that in some cases the updater doesn't remove a registry entry of an older Firefox version, but merely add a new entry leaving the older entry as a orphaned entry and uninstalling in such a cease removes the current Firefox release as well.
