The camps that were officially and only designed for killing occured right after the Wannsee Conference on January 20, 1942 in Poland.
These included the six infamous camps:
Chelmno, Belzec, Sobibor, Treblinka, Auschwitz-Birkenau, and Majdanek.
However, the nearly hundred or more other detention and slave labor camps in other areas occupied by Nazi Germany starting with Dachau in 1933 had horrible conditions any many times served effectively as killing camps.
For example, just to name two camps that were not set up as killing camps, but ended up killing thousands and thousands were:
Bergen Belsen -- 50,000 killed
Theresienstadt -- 33,000 killed
It's very important to remember also that the Nazis didn't just kill in concentration camps.
They also killed in prisoner of war camps. For example they killed 3.5 Soviet prisoners of war.
It is estimated Nazis killed about one million Jews and others by hanging or shooting within several weeks of invading the Soviet Union.
Lastly, Nazis even planned to kill entire cities by starvation. Consider the 872 day seige of Leningrad where the Nazis killed about another million.
