Yes, wagons could and you might have to take your horse through a river or two. After that, it was hit and miss for a very long time.
Nobody said they do or do not. Instead, I asked how many can a state shut down before you can't reasonably travel there? Now, imagine you need to move army tanks through it, or supply trucks. Does your question still matter in that light?
There were motor vehicles before 1956 and it's very unlikely we'd ever need the specific federal roads to repel an invasion.
This has also drifted rather far from the initial argument about parks, which has no national security parallel.
To answer your silly question directly, though, there are hundreds of roads connecting the country that are not operated by the feds. There's also no reason why states would seek to shut them down, since their purpose is to facilitate commerce for the states.

Sure about that there, Mr. NSA?

You are arrogant and insulting. Money or lack of it, shuts many things down. This specific conversation is at an end.
