Theirs no clear single person on who was killed because the camps was runed by the Heinrich himler and the SS and some kills camed from Hitler or Heinrich but some SS Officers were allowed to kill who and amount of people killed in the camps. So answere to part of the question who called the killings by point of the thumb is anyone who was a SS officer or higher.
