Read the historical text in the image. Actual image is larger. Very funny stuff. They built three of them.

FYI - They may have never actually built that Russian Land Battleship. Was an experimental design only. The historical text was apparently created by the illustrator. That is why it is so funny.

Yeah, that image meant to be a joke.

Any Sov tank at that time capable of holding up a German armoured division would have been a KV-1

There was a KV-2, which is probably where the makers of the image got the idea, but that was a special purpose tank for use against fixed fortifications, carrying a slow firing 152mm howitzer. Against armour, it would have been quickly overwhelmed.

And the supposed fates of the "KV-6"s are exactly what you might guess from looking at the picture.
