Cremation was the method the Nazis used for disposal after gassing. Before cremation, the Nazis used to bury them in mass graves, but the decaying bodies caused bacteria counts to rise and contamination of the solid and ground water. Plus mass graves left evidence in the form of their bodies. That is when they decided to move to cremation after gassing. Close to 3 million were cremated. Other were shot or beaten or starved. But the Nazis also realized the bullets used in the Jews were better used at the front lines fighting the Allies.
From August to October 1942, the Nazis killed 1.32 million Jews (15,000/day) in all manners. As I posted earlier, there were 44,000 different camps built during the war. The Nazis turned killing into an industry.
The killing only stopped when there was no one left to murder: From August to October 1942, 1.2 million Jews were slain by the Nazis.

The ovens at Birkenau (one of the largest camps) could cremate 1.6 million bodies a year. Again, this is only one camp. The German people are engineering experts. They had the expertise to perfect genocide and the will and motivation to do so.
