If the guy is implying that the Nazis produced the VW bug, he's made a glaring factual error. The VW was a scam perpetrated on the German Worker; Put down your money in advance and when we build this wonderful car, you'll get one. But the Nazis never actually manufactured the VW in commercial quantities and never intended to. It was purely a bait and switch operation. Only after the war was the design was dusted off and the car manufactured.

Contextually, he's talking about the (male-Nazi) design, not the production.

He didn't say that the Nazis mass produced the Bug.
