Solution:

To be divisible by $5$ the last digit is $0$ or $5,$ and to be even it must be $0.$ So the units digit is fixed.

The leading digit is a nonzero even digit: $2, 4, 6, 8$ give $4$ choices. Each of the two middle digits is any even digit $0, 2, 4, 6, 8,$ giving $5$ choices each.

The total is $4 \cdot 5 \cdot 5 \cdot 1 = 100.$

Thus, B is the correct answer.
