I wanted to know if 60k was a lot. Assuming we're talking 5.56/.223 rounds, I found a listing for 500 rounds for $220 USD. (Out of stock, though, lots of people buying guns and ammo right now.) That works out to $26.4k total. Also, 60k rounds would fill 2,000 30-round magazines.
That amount doesn't strike me as large if spread across the entirety of the Bundeswehr, which has some 200k personnel and a budget of $50 billion according to Wikipedia. However, the article mentions 48k more rounds missing from the KSK, a unit of only 1,100 men that's apparently had issues with some members holding extremist attitudes. 48k rounds missing seems somewhat significant at that scale.
