Actually PB, there were not that many compared to Germany's population. Some estimates are just a few hundred thousand. The oft cited 6 million who were exterminated represents the number throughout Europe and territories that the German army occupied.

That's what I thought. It makes it seem that much worse that the Third Reich was obsessed with getting rid of less than 1 percent of the population. Like they posed some kind of threat rolleyes.
