The only people who "knew" Nazis were extinct never paid much attention to history. We brought Nazi scientists over, and German government was populated by former Nazis, because who else was going to run their government? Also plenty of Nazis went in vacation to South America before justice could be served.
We only defeated the Nazi state and killed their high command (that we could). Much like after the US Civil War, there wasn't enough done to root out the underlying rot.
Plus, we never dealt with the Nazis at home...
