I would add Eugen Kogon who helped establish this narrative already in 1946 by claiming up to 4.5 million at Auschwitz. This was a "reasonable estimate" arrived at by "counting the dead in Auschwitz".
An internet search reveals that Kogon was a German historian. a Christian who was spent 6 years at Buchenwald.
Seems to me like he meets the criteria of a western historian.
A Christian? Eugen Kogon was the son of an unmarried Jewess from Ukraine.
The name "Kogon" is a slightly modified version of the name "Kagan," a Slavic variation of the Hebrew word "Kohen" (which means "priest").

All I can say is that's what I found, I certainly can't vouch for it. It does sound like a Jewish name.
