It's starting to look very much like unknown28 is a level cap for D3 Vanilla legendary items.
I've scanned through the raw data of items in my stash and characters looking at that parameter, legendary_item_level and a couple other things. What I was seeing is that even certain crafting materials (Exquisite Essences, which are used to make items BELOW level 61) and such have unknown28 set at 60. Every legendary from Vanilla that I found which was level 60 also had unknown28 set to 60. - The other items that I changed from level 60 to level 70? They also had unknown28 fixed at 60, while legendary_item_level stayed at 70. I have no problem believing that if I change those to zeroes, just like the other RoS legendaries, they'll jump up to level 70 too.
One strange thing I found in all of this was a Manald Heal on my Wizard. This was also from very early D3 Vanilla. It was only level 30, legendary_item_level 30. Weird thing about this one was that unknown28 showed 51. Don't know what that means. I'm leaning toward it being some kind of min-max for legendary tiers to keep items of overly high level dropping while you're progressing.
Also, I know this doesn't have a lot to do with the item level issue, but I did find something else that was kind of interesting about UnKnowen22 on the items. - When I was going through my stash, I found my Boj Anglers (RoS, 70) showed 2140882336 in this field. I then found a pair of Raekor's Striders (RoS, 70) with the same number in that field. I checked a couple other items too...
Boj Anglers (RoS, 70) = 2140882336
Raekor's Striders (RoS, 70) = 2140882336
Sledge of Athskeleng (RoS, 70) = -1616887517
Wrath of the Bone King (RoS, 70) = -1616887518
Stone Gauntlets (RoS, 67) = -1533912120
Magefist (RoS, 70) = -1533912119
That's two boots, two two-handed maces, and two gauntlets that either have the same UnKnowen22 or very close. Got me wondering if that's some sort of ID for item type or some sort. Not too sure on that one. I didn't compare a ton of items.
Anyway, I know this is a lot. I'm sorry. Heh. It's looking to me like if I want to change D3 Vanilla legendaries from 60 to the level 70 cap of RoS unknown28 needs to be changed to 0.
