No people were killed in that eruption. The Yellowstone Caldera formed 640,000 years ago, before modern humans even existed. Doubtless many animals were killed, but there is no way of estimating how many.

Other than deaths from people who fall into Yellowstone's hot springs, the Yellowstone Caldera has never killed anyone, ever.

The last super-volcano eruption was about 640,000 years ago; even before neanderthals existed on our planet.

The most recent lava flow from the caldera was about 70,000 years ago; long before any humans had migrated to the Americas.

The most recent major event was a steam explosion about 13,800 years ago; long before any humans were in the area.

Nobody was killed in any eruption at Yellowstone as there were no people around tobe killed. However, people have died as a result of other geologic activity related to the volcano. In 1959 28 people were killed by an earthquake and its associated landslides. Through the park's history at least 17 people have died from falling into hot springs.
