60 megabytes is a number that jumped out at me right away: It's about the upper bound of 1 packet per minute at the standard 1500 byte ethernet MTU.
That's about the right amount of data to do an HTTP POST home every minute with the basic temperature, humidity, what its internal IP address etc is.
Which seems completely reasonable to me. 5 megs is reasonable for your acks and occasional commands. I don't think there's anything suspicious about those numbers -- I'd probably have provided similar ones if I was designing this system.
