It may depend on your location; there aren't that many people in most of the western world that don't believe this.

What was the purpose of each section of Auschwitz?
The initial purpose was to terrorize people who defied the Nazi regime.
________
It was a part of the "Final Solution" to the Jewish "problem". Jews were taken there from all over Europe in crowded cattle trucks. Those who survived the journey were split into two groups, those to be immediately killed and those who could temporarily be useful as slave labor. Most new arrivals were stripped and herded into "shower" buildings where they were sealed in and Zyklon B was dropped in through holes in the roof. This killed them and their bodies were disposed of in purpose built crematoria which sometimes operated day and night.
___
The function of Auschwitz changed ... When it was first established in May 1940 it was primarily intended for Polish intellectuals and members of the Polish resistance. At that stage it was an exceptionally harsh forced labour and punishment camp. Later, some Soviet POWs were sent there, too. Auschwitz expanded to become a vast complex of camps (about 45 sub camps). Auschwitz II (Birkenau) opened in 1942, largely as an extermination camp for Jews.
Additional answer
It's not really true to say that Auschwitz was there to terrorise people, because if so then it would have been important for people to know of its existence and what would happen to you if you defied the Nazis. In fact, the Nazis tried to keep quiet about their concentration camps, because they knew that they might be the subject of war crimes trials.
_____
The additional answer certainly applies to Auschwitz and the other extermination camps and Grade III concentration camps (the harshest category of all). However, the existence of the 'ordinary' concentration camps was well known. In fact, Himmler launched Dachau amid a blaze of publicity at a press conference. The purpose of these early camps was to terrorize opponents. There was a quite well known saying in Nazi Germany: 'Lieber Gott, mach' mich stumm/ Dass ich nicht nach Dachau kumm' (English: 'Dear God, make me mute, so that I won't go to Dachau').
It's a big mistake to think that all concentration camps were alike and served the same purposes.

Iceland kind of hung neutral in World War II.

Why did Jews listen to the nazies and go to where they wanted them to go?
The Nazis were smooth talkers who convinced Jewish citizens that they would be sent to harmless labor camps and that work was 'good for the soul.' They comforted them by letting them write postcards to family, postcards that would never be sent. Of course, by the time they actually got to the camps, it would be too late. Word of Nazi atrocities did not spread well. Anyone who was aware of the Nazi's crimes and made this knowledge public was killed.
