According to the report I found, it was not the 1950's. This "Project" occurred between 1965 to 1974.

"For several decades, housing shortages and overcrowding was the overshadowing housing problem in Sweden. People moving from sparsely populated regions to urban areas necessitated the construction of housing, mainly rental apartments in large numbers in the expanding cities. The most important target group for housing planning from the 1930's to the 1950's were low-income households with many children. Housing production became increasingly industrialized during the 1950's and 1960's. The construction boom culminated in the so-called "Million Program". One million new housing units were built over ten years during the period 1965 to 1974. Although the substantially increased building stock represented a considerable step forward, the consequence of the high pace of production, use of new building material, and inadequate/insufficient follow-up of the results of production, etc. was a housing stock of varying quality."
