With as industrious as the Germans are, they would have easily come up with a system that could manage that magic 6 million number. Something simple, efficient, and economical, unlike all the insane stories like OP.
"The Black Book: The Nazi Crime Against the Jewish People is an indictment of the Holocaust and documentation of evidence leading up to it commissioned by the World Jewish Congress. It was submitted for evidence at the Nuremberg Trials as evidence against the Nazis for crimes against the Jewish people.[1] The book was prepared in 1946 by the Jewish Black Book Committee, which included the World Jewish Congress; the Jewish Anti Fascist Committee, USSR; Vaad Leumi, Palestine; and the American Committee of Jewish Writers, Artists, and Scientists." -wikipedia
So this wasn't some obscure book put out by a random publisher; it was commissioned by the WJC and presented as 'evidence' at Nuremberg.

I'd have thought that using electricity to turn them ashes would be far slower and more energy-intensive than simple burning. Those Germans worked miracles!
I get frustrated with how much power I have to generate to run the toaster off grid. Belzec would need a fuckin' power plant to create enough juice to kill a train load of men and then fry the bodies to dust like a glorified bug zapper.

Lol. That'd be funny. Even modern nuclear power plants are only 30% efficient. So you would have these massive steam towers. At that point just steam them like the Chinese steam their food.
