CNN downplays the Holocaust

At the end of an article about a concentration camp guard being convicted in Germany of of thousands of counts of being an accessory to murder, CNN gives an awful summary of historical background of the Holocaust:

It is believed that approximately 6 million Jewish people died in Nazi concentration camps during World War II. Also killed were hundreds of thousands of Roma people and people with mental or physical disabilities.
"It is believed" that 6 million Jews were murdered?

Six million were not killed in concentration or death camps; many thousands were shot, or gassed to death in vans, or otherwise murdered. But "it is believed" that they "died?" And CNN isn't sure about the number 6 million?

And the Jews are "believed" to have died - they might be playing pinochle somewhere - but the Roma and disabled were "killed."

If CNN can't get a basic sentence about the Holocaust right, what can you trust them for?
