Which Honda Pilot model years does this cover?

Nothing in this specification changes between those model years. Pick your year for the engines it offered, what changed that year, and the problems recorded against it.

Replace engine air and cabin filters (sub-code 2); AWD rear differential fluid (sub-code 6); Transmission fluid drain and fill (sub-code 3), conservative owners start here regardless of transmission.

What is due at 60,000 miles on a 2016–2022 Honda Pilot?

Repeat 30k services; Inspect drive belt and suspension bushings.

Does severe service change the schedule for a 2016–2022 Honda Pilot?

The Maintenance Minder governs. Mileages are typical equivalents. Given the 9-speed's judder history, many independent shops recommend a transmission fluid drain/fill every 30,000 miles rather than waiting for the Minder's sub-code 3.
