I have a multipart self extracting rar file;
setup.sfx.part1.exe setup.sfx.part2.rar setup.sfx.part3.rar Now when I try to extract it by starting the exe via commandline I get a nice screen where to extract things to: 
Now my question is here: Is there any way via commandline (as I'm trying to run things automatically via batch job) to extract that file "silently", thus without this menu popping up?

You could use a tool like unrar. (There's a regular RAR archive inside the self-extracting stub.)
Some versions also support the /s option for silent mode.
