I’d go at least 3mm thick depending on your router weight and distance to the bearing supports . 6 would be even better but probably overkill. As long as it doesn’t bow or flex when cutting ( you can put support ribs on top ( between the bearing housings to secure the router and reinforce the plate but it’s more complicated that way
