If we are to trust the sch the voltage across 61 is 270V and across 58 - 185V.

Now granted that is working loaded voltage and it can go up to 40% up if unloaded, and this is why we want some margin on the WV plus the margin for derating, so where it is 270V I would use 450V cap, sure. 600V will take all the questions out.
1000V? Total overkill. 1600V? More overkill.
