Here is a quotation from the text of The Two Towers which I believe proves that the Mûmak in this instance only seemed large due to the fear and wonder it brought upon the Hobbits.

"Big as a house, much bigger than a house, it looked to him, a grey-clad moving hill. Fear and wonder, maybe, enlarged him in the hobbit’s eyes, but the Mûmak of Harad was indeed a beast of vast bulk."
