It didn't and won't break that record because it isn't the longest running animated TV program.

Japan's Sazae-San has been on the air since 1969 and still produces episodes today.

However, the longest running prime time [e.g. American] animated program before The Simpsons was The Flintstones which ran for six seasons [1960-1966], so when The Simpsons' 140th episode aired Team Homer, that was when the broke The Flintstones record.
