That is impossible to know since records have not been kept for more than around a fifty to a hundred years. Before that, either statistics were not kept or they didn't know that the cause of a death was the flu since they didn't even know viruses existed.

There were around 50 million people who died world wide from the Spanish Flu pandemic and there are around 36,000 deaths each year from seasonal flu in the US alone. The numbers would likely be staggering if we could isolate all the deaths in history that were due to the flu and then count them, but that is not possible with the available information.
