6 million most commonly refers to the number of victims of the Holocaust, but that i mean deaths, of course Holocaust survivors were also victims. There are varying figures as not all names have been identified, many of the victims were from the Soviet Union and records were harder to access behind the Iron Curtain. Most of the names have been identified and the number may be a few thousand short of six million, but it is used as an identifiable number.
