Also please do note that you're assuming that civilian spaceships can be built in a period of 5 to 10 years without any problems and with technology only 40 years from now. Something like that would take literally decades to plan out and make. Also, according to the lore, the spaceships are built during a depression. So instead of helping people, they will cater for an elite few to start a new civilisation. Obviously, the ships will be filled with the rich. And then you say a world war broek out. Still while the spaceships are being built. I have a hard time believing any of this.

There was a documentary I watched quite some time ago. It replied on the hypothetical scenario that a neutron star is heading into our solar system with a direct collision course for earth, and will reach them in 100 years. It takes them 100 years to build a vessel capable of going to another planet. And that was with the co-operation of the entire human race. The scenario you have created is not only impossible, but completely and utterly stupid.  We might as well just abandon all realsim and build a death star, because that's as plausible as this.
