- Operation Reinhard (1942–1943) was the largest single murder campaign of the
- Holocaust, during which some 1.7 million Jews from German-occupied Poland were
- murdered by the Nazis. Most perished in gas chambers at the death camps Belzec,
- Sobibor, and Treblinka. However, the tempo, kill rates, and spatial dynamics of
- these events were poorly documented. Using an unusual dataset originating from
- railway transportation records, this study identifies an extreme phase of
- hyperintense killing when >1.47 million Jews—more than 25% of the Jews killed
- in all 6 years of World War II—were murdered by the Nazis in an intense,100-day
- (~3-month) surge. Operation Reinhard is shown to be an extreme event, based on
- kill rate, number, and proportion (>99.9%) of the population murdered in camps,
- highlighting its singularly violent character, even compared to other more
- recent genocides. The Holocaust kill rate is some 10 times higher than
- estimates suggested by authorities on comparative genocide.
