You went a bit too far.  You should just remove the awk command line 
from gnuplot's view, not create an intermediate data file.  The idea was 
to can that awk command into a separate script and then replace

>     plot "< zcat $f" using 3:4 with dots lt 8, plot "< zcat $f | gawk -v

> exit}'" using 3:4 with points pt 6 lt -1

by

plot "< zcat $f" using 3:4 with dots lt 8, \
      "< zcat $f | gawk -f myscript.awk NAME=60001" using 3:4 \
              with points pt 6 lt -1

[A side note: there was a superfluous "plot" keyword lurking in your 
posted version]
