I think it has to do with the 40 days it takes a baby to develop in the womb. 40 is a number of development. (Moshe Rabbeinu on Har Sinai, among other 40s.)

It might be the interesting to collect a list of 40. Here are a random few, to start.
Rain in the mabul
Years in midbar
Moshe's life was 40x3

In high school I heard several times quoted from the heiliga rebbi r' Eleimelach from Lizensk that it takes 40 days work on a middah to change it

Is there significance to this - that Moshe's life was 40x3? I've never heard it put that way.
