good question
again it suffers from definition:
do you go by who the Nazis considered German? or by who considered themselves German? as you have a few hundred thousand German Jews who were stripped of their status as Germans, but none the less were nothing else.
Very few of the political prisoners or (non-Jewish) criminals died in the death camps as they were mainly in the concentration camps. The Gypsies mainly died in the death camps, but the disabled mainly died elsewhere.
so this answer may not help much, but hopefully it will help you with the issues
I wonder if you are confusing the Holocaust with World War 2? Raul Hilberg estimates the total number of Germans killed in the Holocaust as at most 300.
The Germans set-up many camps in occupied Poland perhaps 2,000. These included concentration and labour camps mostly for ethnic Poles. There were also ghettos and death camps most for ethnic Jews.
About 6 miillion
none...sadly theyall died:(
It was the night of the Kristallench, when the Germans invaded Jews' homes, smashed all their china and crystal, and forced them to go into the death camps

They were the victims, persecuted and killed by the Germans. They were held in ghettos and camps; some were shot to death and many were gassed.

In concentration camps that were not officially extermination camps, disease was the primary cause of death. However, the exact numbers are unknown.
3 million
Jews were sent to death camps where diseases spread and many germans killed jews there.
The Jews were tricked by the Nazi Germans. The Jews and the general populace of Germany bought all the lies the Nazi Germans fed them about the Jews and the concentration camps. Most Germans believed the death camps were work camps and war manufacturing places - they are the ones who lived in denial because they feared for their lives and rightly so. They knew they were not labor camps. You could smell the stink of death from more than a mile a way. They knew. Many Jews escaped or fled to the forests in various countries. Some managed to make it to the US and the presidential cabinet heard the horrid truth about the concentration camps.
6. The death camps were the ones with gas chambers (or gas vans). The six death camps in Poland were:Auschwitz-BirkenauBelzecChelmnoMajdanekSobiborTreblinkaThe link below should have your answer.
Death camps were the Nazi's way to eliminate those who did not fit their mold. In all, there were seven death camps located in Europe.
