Seems to me that these 60mA are the 100mA /minimum/ that a USB port must be
able to provide, minus whatever the module itself needs (the USB chip's
specs say 50mA max). If you have a USB port upstream that is able to
provide more (like the 500mA max of the USB spec), you have 450mA for your
application circuit.

So what your app can use depends on the port it is connected to.
