Because of the amount of people that died, it would be in very bad taste to use the Holocaust as a source of humour. People might think that you are neutral to racism or that you're a racist yourself. Six million European Jews and all the other people, were killed for no reason (no valid reason). Gypsies, Jews, nonwhite people, the list goes on. So you see, it would be very insensitive to do so.
