Bit of a stumper Mike.  Tracy tools, my go-to source for taps and dies, =
sell a tap that is 5/8=E2=80=9Dx16 with a =E2=80=9CUNS=E2=80=9D thread =
form https://www.tracytools.com/product/5-8-x-16-tpi

I am unfamiliar with UNS but believe it is the abbreviation for Unified =
National Special, suggesting it is non-standard thread.  Looks like a =
bit of a rabbit hole and I am curious to see what others find.

The thread on the flare nut used to secure the temperature bulb into the =
head on later 6 cylinder engines is 5/8" diameter and 16 TPI.

Is this some sort of standard thread or a "special"?
