And if this number seems to be quite impressive, is it ok to say "Maşallah" ?

Maşallah is a Arabic-rooted saying and number 41 refers to plurality in Arabic, this is what I know.

Number 40 is very important on Turkish mythologhy and culture ( not in arabic culture), represent to power, completeness, succes, sacrifiction etc...And 41 is like, "you have this complete and even more"... I guess..But there is a turkish religous teacher made a comment like turkish cobra translated.

Your explanation may be correct. My explanation was just what I heard, I didn´t research the actual. But it sounded familiar to me to combine a number that has a special meaning in Arabic with an Arabic saying.
thanks.
