There is no issue here, it is a matter of confusing terms.
When you say you are getting 60 mbps, you are getting 60 MegaBITS per second. However, when Origin or Xbox is downloading, it displays in MBps, or MegaBYTES per second. A BIT is not the same as a BYTE. 8 BITS = 1 BYTE. This is how internet companies confuse many people, it seems like your internet is alot faster than it actually is.
So for round numbers sake, say you have a 80mpbs internet connection. The fastest Origin would let you download is 10MB/s. So since you say you are getting 10MB/s from Origin, that means your internet connection is actually a bit better than your 60mbps should handle.
Hope that clears things up. I didnt know this either until a couple of years ago when I got into PC gaming.
