Those are tracking so closely together, it almost looks like they have automated their orbit raising sequencing.
All 60 sats from the most recent Starlink launch seem to be orbit raising successfully. (Green = deployment rods).pic.twitter.com/JMZe2dtcy3

They orbit in a very tight formation for some weeks before eventually separating. You can see the difference here between Mission 15 and 16 15: https://orbit.ing-now.com/3dlaunch/payload/data/2020-088/ … 16:https://orbit.ing-now.com/3dlaunch/payload/data/2020-074/ …

How long do the deorbit rods hang around?

Depends on the insertion orbit; sometimes a few weeks, sometimes months; a couple of launches left them in higher orbit that will take over a year
