We'll never know. In many of the Holmes stories, Watson makes reference to Holmes; remarks about crimes (solved and unsolved) that he never discussed with Watson, either for reasons of discretion, or because he felt the specifics of the case, while fantastic, would not demonstrate how logic, deduction and observation worked (a criterion of Holmes'; he disliked Watson's writings when they ventured away from the coldly scientific and stoic, and into the realm of "sensationalism".). Even considering the number of crimes mentioned in the books, the likely number would be far higher.

Was Sherlock Holmes nice?
The fictional character of Sherlock Holmes was heroic, in the sense of solving crimes and helping to bring criminals to justice, which is a nice thing to do; this helps people and helps society in general. Whether Holmes would have been described as having a nice personality is another matter. Most people would probably judge him to be overly pedantic and egotistical to be considered nice. Humility is nicer.
