Hitler in 9 years:

6 million Jews in camps
6 million Poles in camps
20 million Soviet citizens butchered
1 million other Poles butchered, such as in Warsaw
1 million Serbs
1 million Greeks
1 million Italians (after 1944 when Italy switched sides)
1/2 million French after Overlord
50,000 Britians
500,000 Danes, Belgians, Netherlanders, Hungarians
2 million Germans (disabled, mentally retarded, aristocrats, unionists, conservatives, etc)
Total: 39 million in 9 years.
Stalin: 36 million Soviet citizens and about 10 million others in 30 years. So sure, Hitler killed fewer overall, but thankfully his career was ended rather shortly. Stalin averaged 1.6 million per year, Hitler averaged 4.3 million per year, not counting war dead.

"6 million Jews in camps

These numbers are wrong. I have already seen them. Are they from Russian history books ?

6 million Jews in camps ? No, about 6 million Jews died in WW2, but "only" about 3.5-4 million of them were killed in the camps.

6 million Poles in camps ? No, about 6 million Poles died in WW2, about half of them were Polish Jews, so you shouldn't count them twice, besides "only" a few hundred thousand of them were killed in camps, a few hundred thousand were also killed by Soviets, especially in 39-41, near the end and soon after WW2, when NKVD was fighting against "coutr-revolutionists".

BTW Is someone, who kill 3 people in 2 hours better than someone, who kill 4 people in 10 hours ?
