We had the luxury of producing around the clock without any interference from the war.
Ignoring our overwhelming production of ship tonnage (combat and merchant), just looking at combat aircraft production, the U.S. combined production for 1943 and 1944 were more than any major nation produced the entire war. Only the Soviets exceeded (slightly) half our combat aircraft production.
Tank production were a little more even, overall, but only because we produced so many in 1943, the Army decided we wouldn't even field all of those unmodified. We used aircraft as anti-armor (whereas the Soviets used more tanks to counter tanks), so those numbers really became irrelevant.
