Wiki says 78% but then it also says between 60-75% of European Jewry was annihilated. http://www.jewishvirtuallibrary.org/jsource/Holocaust/history.html says two thirds of European Jewry. This is a number I have heard before in college so I'm guessing it's more or less accurate. Of course without knowing the exact numbers of Jews who died in the Holocaust it is difficult to say for sure.
Approximately two-thirds (66%) of all European Jews were killed during the Holocaust. About one-third of the worldwide Jewish population was eradicated.
Poland. Just before the start of World War 2 Poland had a Jewish population of about 3.3 million.
During the Holocaust, approximately 90% of the Jewish population in Poland was killed, along with around 85% in the Baltic states (Lithuania, Latvia, and Estonia). In Germany, about 30% of the Jewish population was murdered. These devastating figures reflect the widespread and systematic extermination of Jews across these regions during World War II.

Before World War II, the Jewish population in Russia was estimated to be around 5 million. This number included Jews living in the Soviet Union, particularly in areas like Ukraine and Belarus.

During the Holocaust, approximately six million Jews were killed, which represented about 67% of the Jewish population in Europe at that time.
