Many DVMs from the '70s or '80s (34740A/34750A, or the 3465x series) used 
discrete JFETS, for example from the 2N4392 or 2N4117 series. The 4066 and 
equivalent CMOS switches were far too leaky for this use. Many of these JFETS 
were selected for low leakage currents, such as the 1855-0412, selected from 
the 2N439x series, or the 2N4117A which is an off-the-shelf part. As usual, 
HP's manuals are your perfect source of information!

Yes, but I believe they are integrated ones usually. Either ye olde 4066
style or custom integrated circuits in the case of the HP 3458A.
