Jews were around 6 million people killed in the Holocaust, whose total number has (in recent years) been concluded to be 17 million. Previous estimates that gave the 11~12 million number weren't accurate because NATO and Soviet sources couldn't be corroborated. After the Berlin Wall came down, historians were able to get much better data, including GPO and Operation Barbarossa.
The number was only updated by various Holocaust organizations in the last decade, so if you graduated high school/college prior to 2010ish, you were still getting the 11 to 12 million number.
