Repeat of position, not moves.
After 62. ... Rd5 it's the first time, after 64. ... Kd6 it's the second time and after 66. ... Kd6 it's the third time. Same position, three times.
I really think it would be a good idea to make an Infobox appear explaining 3-fold repetition after such happens in a game.

Something like a tooltip showing up when hovering over the game result (where it says "Threefold repetition • Draw") redirecting to the great explanation in the FAQ lichess.org/faq#threefold would certainly be an idea.

That's exactly what I thought about as well, just didn't know it was called a tooltip.

Or just that little "info" icon, which is used on the analysis page next to accuracy, could work as well. And then, add the same for Stalemate, Fifty moves without progress and what else there is.
Or maybe we should expect all players to know the rules of the game. Why not?
Hey, who let him in here?!

That won't work.
Mostly complete beginners join Lichess who aren't aware of all of the rules. When I joined, even I didn't know about threefold repetition back then. And not en passant either.
