Amazing footage of Me 262s at Innsbruck

First, the Me 262s of III./EJG 2 (170061 being White 11) had their numbers forward of the cockpit.

Second, every photo I have seen of III./EJG 2's White 4 has a "kaulquappe" tail. To my eye, the photograph of this White 4 at the top page 52 of Dan O'Connell's Production Log has the werknummer 170306 below the tailplane.

Finally, while 170061 is on the 26 April 1945 inventory of JV44, I have seen no documentation placing it at Innsbruck-Hotting.

From much staring at the your photos and the above one enlarged, I would hazard "110x57". Of course, I am willing to be corrected.

I also have some doubts as to it being 170061.
