Hello and thank you for contacting PetCoach. I don't think it is possible to predict when she will go into labour. There are no rules for that, it does not matter how big the litter is. She well may go over 60 days this time. Good luck with her, hope she will go through the labour ok and have healthy, strong pupps.
