The ... in the latest instructions indicate 'a path of your choosing'.
The later ... indicates to use that same path again. In your case the
... is temp. The critical step you seem to have missed is the cd ~ which
puts you in your home directory so the the unpack is to j601 in your
home directory.

On the jwiki the instructions have included a prefix
directory 'temp' which I have been following even though
your announcement did not. Consequently the new beta did NOT
override the old beta; rather I had to manually do so. Below
I show the jwiki instructions excerpted.
http://www.jsoftware.com/jwiki/System/Installation/Mac
For example, download to a temp directory, then:
cd ~
tar -xzf temp/j601hbeta_darwin.tar.gz
sudo mv j601/libj601.dylib /usr/lib/
