I think you're looking at two separate terms.
SAE 4140 steel is a Chromium-Molybdenum steel used extensively for axles, aerospace concerns, and firearm manufacture.
Mild steel is a catch-all term for plain carbon steel of low carbon content (such as SAE 1018) which is generally cheap, not heat-treatable, and used for fairly low-strain applications.
I hope that helps.
