None of this is as important as the action...
What effects does the destroying of supply lines to concentration camps holding upwards of 250,000 people have - and what actions caused the disruption?
Sounds like they wouldn't ever have had as many as 250,00 there at the same time if you ask me.
The point of your question is of no relavence to the action. You have provided a source saying that 20k are killed a day. That is all - nothing more.
In the end, what is being disputed but the numbers? We could argue the color of the walls, but it is of no consequnce, just as the numbers are of no consequence.
I can provide a source that accounts for around 200,000 in a certain camp:
library.thinkquest.org...
Sachsenhausen
... 200,000 people were in the camp and 100,000 of them ended up dying from disease, exhaustion, and over working in the local factories. A lot of the rest were brought to many other death camps.
I'm sure I can find many other pages that list different numbers for the same camps. We can find many books that list different numbers, and we can hear many testimonies that list different numbers.
The argument of numbers is trivial, and is of no consequnce to the action being discussed. Please refrain from such discussion. We can spend hours pulling up web pages to suit an agenda to defeat the other person in internet debate regarding numbers, but in the end will have not proven anything. This is not what the thread is about.
It should be telling that after two pages of posts, no one has the courage to answer the question of the action:
What effects does the destroying of supply lines to concentration camps holding upwards of 250,000 people have - and what actions caused the disruption?
This is the question.

The Allies didn't cause the Holocaust. And saying that is almost offensive.
