How did Lincoln win the election of 1860 when he won only 40% of the popular vote but managed to win in the electoral college 180 to 123?
Lincoln was able to win those electoral votes because the rest of the popular vote was split up between several other candidates.

About Electoral Votes
Electoral Votes are part of the Electoral College, representatives who formally elect the President and Vice President of the United States of America. Voters in Presidential Elections do not directly vote for the President, instead they vote for electors representing their state. The elector may cast only one vote for President and one vote for Vice-President.
