Original Note:
The 4 million figure that appeared on the old plaque originated from Soviet investigators, but was rejected by Holocaust scholars as unreliable. Consequently, it was never used in the estimates of the total number of Jews murdered in the Holocaust. https://www.adl.org/resources/backgrounder/debunking-holocaust-denial-claims#:~:text=Myth%3A%20The%20Auschwitz%20Plaques%20Prove%20that%20the%20Six%20Million%20Figure%20is%20False
