KB3060716 and KB3071756 are not present in Uninstall and Update and
that is understandable as they are failed 'loopers', but they are in
abundance in Review of Update History because of their being failed.
You are able to get them into Uninstall and Update because you
system did not fail them. Interestingly, I fail to see two of the
repeating successful updates, namely KB3004375 and KB3031432, in
Uninstall and Update, probably because they have not been as
successful as indicated.
The idea is to see if you have KB2922229 and KB2984976.
And remove them if you do.

Found KB2922229 - Installed on 9/04/2014 - and KB2984976 - Installed
on 15/10/2014. Both removed.
Reboot.
OK, now run Windows Update.
What are the new symptoms.

It attempted to download 8 updates and was successful with three. The
others failed. Two of the successful ones were the regular two -
KB3004375 and KB3031432. The other one was one of the two I
uninstalled at your request- KB2984976. I did not try the seven
optional ones.
Incidentally, the 7 optional updates also failed. The code for those
which failed above was the usual 80073712.
There is guided help here. They only try the easy stuff, before
punting and suggesting a repair install or similar.

One of the suggested steps, should download the Windows Update
Troubleshooter.
You would double-click this and run it. I doubt it will fix anything, but
again, it's a troubleshooter. It should be clearing SoftwareDistribution
as one of the steps.

Fixed.
