Your question is incomplete, therefore the answer has to be guessed. If you are asking how many people escaped the eruption, not many did because the eruption was sudden and caught people by surprise.
The number of deaths is also uncertain. It has been estimated that the population of Pompeii was about 8,000 to 12,000.
