It's also important to note that regardless of whether or not these were intended to be Daleks, from recollection, the characters never actually refer to them as Daleks. I'm pretty sure they're referred to as "British robots". Doesn't that make them more of an easy joke rather than a character to be taken seriously?
You have to ask yourself- "Why are they in the movie?" Are they a serious threat or a quick, easy laugh? To me it's the latter, and therefore, the intention of the author(s) is nowhere near placing it in the DWU. If you wanted to, you'd at least name them.
P.S. I am planning on rewatching the movie so I'll try to gleam any further information from my second sitting.
EDIT: I'm fully aware that Faction Paradox never named TARDISes and Time Lords, yet intended it all to be set within the DWU... but the LEGO Movie is hardly FP, is it? haha
