603 and its derivatives (G2, e300, ...) only support 4k pages.
And regardless, the reference manual says:
The tlbia instruction is not implemented on the MPC603e and when its
opcode is encountered, an illegal instruction program exception is
generated. To invalidate all entries of both TLBs, 32 tlbie instructions
must be executed, incrementing the value in EA[15–19] by 1 each time
