Use Epilog to add a line. Keep in mind, coordinates of the line
need to specified in terms of logs. The code below adds a red
horizontal line at the 63 percentile. You can also include
labels for the line in the Epilog construct.

ProbabilityScalePlot[{data1, data2, data3}, "Weibull",
  PlotRange -> Automatic, GridLines -> Automatic,
  GridLinesStyle -> "Classic",
  FrameLabel -> {{Style["Ausfallwahrscheinlichkeit F(t) in %", Italic,
      FontSize -> 12],
     ""}, {Style["Lebensdauer", Italic, FontSize -> 12], ""}},
  Frame -> True, Epilog -> {Red, Line at {{Log[.001], 0},
{Log[100], 0}}}]
