Still, it gives us plenty to ponder, (and what's more in a case like this) - speculation can run rampant as there is no definitive answer.
Well the E-100 was just another "crazy" idea of an "perfect" Tank but small compared to the P-1000. They really should have build the Tiger and Panther tank in higher numbers. There was no tank which could really harm these tanks. The most were destroyed by the crew or in fact of a damaged clutch or other failures.

But to be honest, i don't really want to know how the world would look like if germany had won the WW2. I think there would be war till to this day.
But the good thing is that many inventions from the WW2 german military were used for civilian things, just like the first jet engine of the Me-262.
