I did a shutdown -t sec 60 and what appeared was a message that shutdown would be in 60 minutes.
Is there a bug in the shutdown command, and is that the reason that the 60 second count down does not appear to be working.

Trying to analyze the command line:
-You did "shutdown -t sec 60" -The message was "The system is going DOWN to maintenance mode in 60 minutes!" -The argument of -t was the empty string. -60 is 'when to shutdown' in minutes.
So what? That's what it was supposed to happen.
please, man shutdown
best regards.

Reread the shutdown man file. You should have used "shutdown -t 60".
In your version, the 60 got interpreted as the minutes portion of HH:MM.
