Regarding dissertation grading

I have made a blunder by not removing six references which I was supposed to delete, would that come under plagiarism, would I be unable to pass the dissertation. I am really worried.

No this is not plagiarism, plagiarism is the opposite (not putting references in).

I am guessing you mean from reference list? If so may not even be spotted (i had 6 extra references i should have deleted and passed my doctoral viva without them being spotted, had a fair few though so easy to miss), and it is a very minor thing. Id doubt it would impact marks at all.
