Mathematically speaking, 3 wins is the required minimum for a team to make the playoffs in the current format. If each team in the division won their home games against their division rivals they would each have 3 wins. Conisder that all non-division teams beat them they would all have a record of 3-13. At least 1 team would be the winner of the division and thereby make it into the playoff wildcard game as a 4th seed, which most undoubtedly they would lose.
You do not need a set amount of wins to reach the playoffs. The only thing a team needs to do is win their division.

As of the beginning of the 2007 playoffs, since MLB when to three levels of playoffs (Divisional Series, Championship Series, World Series) the answer is no. When there was only two levels (Championship Series, World Series), the 1976 Cincinnati Reds defeated the Philadelphia Phillies 3 games to 0 in the NLCS and the New York Yankees 4 games to 0 in the World Series. They are the only team to go undefeated in the playoffs since MLB went to the divisional format in 1969.
