Even more info is needed.

OS and Version would be useful.

Have you watched memory consumption as you approach the 60
connections? Some versions of RHEL6 and CentOS 6 leak ~20MB of memory
in Kerberos if you have SeLinux enabled, and so on.

Are there any messages in /var/log/messages at the time the connections stop?

It is unlikely that Samba is the problem, since I have seen many more
connections than that on CentOS 6.7 with a version of 4.3 (but maybe
not 4.3.11.)
