SMD code 601 — 600 Ω
A surface-mount resistor has no bands. This one is a three-digit marking: 60 × 10¹. Parts marked this way are usually ±5% or ±2%.
601
reads as
600 Ω
Same value, other markings
600 Ω is printed several ways depending on the part's precision and size. A board can carry all of them at once.

Codes you will mistake it for
One character apart from 601. On a 0402 part these are a fraction of a millimetre of printing — worth a second look before you solder.
