Thank you for your fast answer and your advice.

Adding architecture=64 to the bjam command line leads to the following error:

...
C:/projekte/libs/boost/tools/build/v2/build\feature.jam:467: in feature.validate
-value-string from module feature
error: "64" is not a known value of feature <architecture>
error: legal values: "x86" "ia64" "sparc" "power" "mips1" "mips2" "mips3" "mips4
" "mips32" "mips32r2" "mips64" "parisc" "arm" "combined" "combined-x86-power"
C:/projekte/libs/boost/tools/build/v2/build\property.jam:276: in validate1 from
module property
...

This is my new command line:

call %~dp0tools\mingwvars x64
%~dp0tools\bjam --toolset=gcc --prefix=.\ --libdir=.\lib\x64\ -j%NUMBER_OF_PROCESSORS% -sZLIB_INCLUDE=%CD%\..\zlib\ -sZLIB_SOURCE=%CD%\..\zlib\ address-model=64 threading=multi link=static runtime-link=static debug release install
rd /s /q .\bin.v2
pause

the mingw-w64 bin folder is inside %PATH%, I double checked that. Unfortunately I am still getting an odd error when executing the above statement:
