Re Notch filter

In mne.filter.notch_filter — MNE 1.4.2 documentation, when I do

raw_EEG_filtered = raw_EEG.copy().notch_filter(
        freqs=60, filter_length="auto", trans_bandwidth=9, notch_widths=2
    )

does the MNE assume that data was equally spaced or not? My EEG data (500hz) is over 1Hr:45Mins long and it may not be equally spaced based on the timestamp. Does it even matter for notch_filter?
