Yes, the nukes killed ~200,000 people. The proposed invasion could've killed millions of soldiers and civilians.

Why was it unecessary to bombard Japan in 1945?

Japan had a policy of Never Surrender No Matter what. It was necessary first to burn Japan cities from the air, and then to drop 2 atomic bombs in order to force Japan to surrender. If Japan had been invaded in November 1945, it probably would have cost 1 Million Allied lives, and 2 Million Japanese lives! Bombing Japan and getting them to surrender saved far more lives than it killed.
