Around 6 million Jews
About 66 percent of European Jews were killed

Explanation:

The Holocaust resulted in approximately 6 million Jews being systematically and brutally killed.

The Holocaust also targeted disabled peoples, gypsies, Soviets, homosexuals, sympathizers of Jews (ex. people that hid them, helped them, etc.) and others that were considered "dangerous" to the Nazi ideology or "inferior." Several more million of these peoples were killed just as the Jews were. Let's not forget that they were also victims.
