A kilometre is not a unit of area.

C'mon guys, do you mean 60 square kilometres, 60 kilometres square, 60 kilometres radius, or what? Unfortunately, being somewhat literalist, my mental image involves the area being covered by a Peano curve approximation using a strip the width of a road and 60 kilometres long. My mental abilities won't tell me how much area that actually is.

Heh, based on the "based on a coverage area of" and "a handful to cover the UK", I'd expect it to be an area approximating that of a square, 60 km to a side.
