Yes, just to reiterate:

yum erase kmod-nvidia
yum install kmod-nvidia-340xx
reboot

You will then be on the correct driver branch and will get the
appropriate driver updates going forwards, no changes to yum necessary.

I went through all this, and now that I have kmod-nvidia-340xx installed, but have you executed yum update or yum list updates? If you do then yum will want up upgrade you to the latest and greatest kmod-nvidia-346xx. So other than modifying yum to exclude the nvidia driver how do you prevent the update in the future?

rpm -qa | grep nvidia
nvidia-detect-346.35-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
kmod-nvidia-340.65-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64
nvidia-x11-drv-340.65-1.el6.elrepo.x86_64

Output from yum list updates
Updated Packages
kmod-nvidia.x86_64                    346.35-1.el6.elrepo                 elrepo
nvidia-x11-drv.x86_64                 346.35-1.el6.elrepo                 elrepo
