By 1941, the Nazis began building Chelmno, the first extermination camp (also called death camp), in order to "exterminate" both Jews and Gypsies. In 1942, three more death camps were built (Treblinka, Sobibor, and Belzec) and used solely for mass murder. Around this time, killing centers were also added at the concentration camps of Auschwitz and Majdanek. So i would say 6 or more.
