The top section of our old, but much loved GE Double Wall Oven (see images attached) rises to approximately 600 degrees Fahrenheit as soon as it is switched on, no matter what temperature is set. The bottom oven seems to be maintain the correct temperature set.

We think the thermostat may have become disconnected or needs to be replaced. We don't know what year the oven was made, and are not sure what the model number is (there are a few numbers on the plate - see photo). Can anyone advise us what the model number might be, what year it was manufactured, and/or what thermostat we could purchase to replace the existing one?

Any advice would be greatly appreciated!

Your best bet is to actually remove the upper t-stat and try to find a part number on it. The manufacturers are generally pretty good about keeping records of what replaces what. Sometimes you can have some luck with vintage parts on ******** as well if you know the part number. One of those numbers on the data plate is probably the model number, but all those records are not easily accessible these days.
