As you can see above, the Diamond Anniversary is celebrated twice, 60th and 75th.  Originally the 60th Anniversary did not count and the 75th was the only Diamond Anniversary.  

 

The practice of celebrating it after 60 years has been adopted after Queen Victoria celebrated her Diamond Jubilee after 60 years.

 

This way it makes more sense as it's very hard for a couple to survive and celebrate 75 years of marriage!
