You don't need a ton of torque at the crank shaft. Put it in 1st gear 4x4 low range and you can twist the axles off with a relatively weak motor.
And no even with rubber tires, it doesn't take that much to get it rolling.
In the '70s I had a few 427 GMCs (and a couple of Super Duty Fords, when SD implied 850 in VIN) I would pull out of quarry grossing 110,000 lbs. Step grade, or soft ground, put both boxes in 1. Might have to drive a stake in the ground to tell it was moving, but if your patient it will get there. But, once started downhill, would take a running automobile to pass.
