It quite possibly would have given them cause for concern however I seriously doubt that they could have built any more than a handful of them before the wars end and I also doubt that their numbers would have had any effect on the outcome of the war.
Essentially by 1945 they would have been little more than bunkers on tracks due to the lack of fuel.
