I was thinking the same thing myself. I'm almost certain that L/H mirrors were not required back then by law but sometime shortly after they were. I have no reason to doubt that the holes in the R/H door are not original unless it had a new door skin fitted at some stage and the holes were simply drilled on the wrong spot.

I just looked at the HG and HQ commercial vehicles order forms. LH side mirrors were mandatory on commercials in 1970 and 1971-2 in QLD, VIC, TAS and WA. HJ would be about the same. I looked on buickzz's broadcast sheet but I can see drillings for the LH side mirror, so my guess is dealer fitment.
