I cannot confirm the issue.
Two days ago I had a newly installed Windows 7 Professional N 64bit.
From java.com I installed the recommended version (8.0.660.18 64bit).
I downloaded stable JOSM (r9060) using Webstart.
JOSM had no problems starting

Do you have an older version of Java installed as default JRE?
To check, open CMD and type "java -version".
If you want to keep the old JRE as default, you can enter in CMD:
C:\<path to java>\java.exe -jar -Xmx1024M "C:\<path to josm>\josm-latest.jar"
Or create a script for starting.
To avoid the Java console windows staying open, you can use javaw.exe instead of java.exe.
