Most people don't consider 1940 a landslide.

Also, can you really call a non- popular vote election a landslide?

You could win every state plus DC with 50.00001% of the vote, and I wouldn't consider it a landslide.

No, because I think of a landslide as having the support of a large majority of people. If you think of it is a large margin, then it would be.
