I cashed out a 401k worth about $40 k. $7500 was withheld in tax. Will I owe any more on it?
I filed married jointly with a total household income of $65,000.

Most likely yes.
The $7500 is only an estimate and it normally falls short.
The normal withholding is 20%, so my guess is that you cashed out about $37,500
Federal:
22% - Typical tax bracket
10% - Penalty if you are not 59.5 years old
32% - Estimated Total Tax Rate
$37,500 x 32% = $12,000
$12,000 less $7,500 = $4500 additional owed.
State:No state taxes were withheld. If you live in a state with an income tax, you estimate owing about $2000
$4500 + $2000 = Owing an additional $6500

Depends on your tax return, your filing status and your marginal income. Assuming you file as a single person, you would pay 12% on every additional dollar up to about $40,000 taxable income (which is likely about $52,000 gross income given a standard deduction). Over that, you would pay 22% on every additional dollar up to $84,000.
That is only Federal tax, you could have state tax on top of it. You simply haven't provided the needed information to make even an educated guess.
