Answer

You cannot “interrupt” the PHP code after the closing { of the if and before the else keyword.

Cleaned up version:

<?php if (wp_get_attachment_image($item['image']['id'], 'home-post-thumbnail') != '') {
    echo wp_get_attachment_image($item['image']['id'], 'home-post-thumbnail');
} else {
    ?><img class="img-responsive img-whp" src="<?php echo plugin_dir_url( __FILE__ ) . '/6-450x450.jpg'; ?>"><?php
} ?>

To avoid such errors, try learning and following a coding standard, e.g. PSR-12.

Since you are working with WordPress, here is WP’s coding standard for PHP: https://developer.wordpress.org/coding-standards/wordpress-coding-standards/php/
