So, could somebody please hint me at how to get "the correct" Image for 64bit FreebSD/amd64? Or is the Downloaded one OK?
It is. Images are cross-platform, you can move them freely between Mac/ Unix/Windows or any other platform.
If it is, however, wouldn't I need a 3.10.5 Image instead of 3.10.2?
If the image complains about sources not being found, it's "alive".
VM versions are somewhat independent of image versions, and supposed to be backwards-compatible. So you usually want to install the latest released VM, and use that to run all kinds of images, even older ones.
There are 64bit images, but AFAIK they're mostly unsupported (I may be wrong there). They're available from http://squeakvm.org/squeak64/dist3/ - note, however, that those are not version 3.10, but 3.8.
I am not aware of anybody currently using 64 bit images.
