He figured the real number would never be known since so many of the sites were 'behind the wall' as Eastern Europe was referred to at the time, but he had no doubt that there had been many more Camps in use than anyone had found up to that date.

We know about the nazis and their atrocities but non of that could have happen so smoothly and efficient with out the help of the bureaucrats in some of the occupied countries. In French and Holland it was mostly the local police who rounded up the Jews and the Dutch and French railroad companies that transported them to the camps. In Amsterdam it was even so bad; the city bureaucrats had already mapped out where every single jewish family lived. All the Germans had to do was walk into the city archive...
