The only thing secret about alot of the prisons arond the world are their locations. Most of these were built (for obvious reasons) during the Cold War.

Why would they build so many prisons then? I doubt we would have so many POW's, and why would they put POW camps so close to Japan? Well, figurativley speaking of course, California (Where supposedly many of the bases are) and Alaska (Where the base which holds 2 million people is located) are much closer to Japan, then lets say, Kansas, South Dakota, Montana, Tenn., Arkansas, etc.
Updated December 10, 1996. The foregoing listing cites almost 70 locations for the internment of civilians in the United States during World War II.. In October 1990, the authors, under the Freedom of Information and Privacy Act, requested an exhaustive list of the internment facilities and detention centers used by the U.S. Government during World War II. Almost two years later, on August 23, 1993, the Immigration and Naturalization Service responded with a partial list and said, "no guarantee can be made that the list provided is exhaustive. No definitive list now exists." See FOIPA request CO 2.12.-C; CO 904151
We remain astonished that the multi-million dollar 1982 report, Personal Justice Denied, of the Commission on Wartime Relocation and Internment of Civilians depicts only four internment sites in the United States. Furthermore the report does not report on any internment facilities east of the Mississippi River. See page xii of the cited report.
If thier locations are still secret, that implies they intend to use them, whether in the recent future, or incase of a disaster.

I heard on the internet that there are more than 600 camps in the U.S., each of those camps can hold thousands of people. ... I think they can be used if there is a massive immigration in our country ...
