And that means? Dead people have often been burned when there are a great
many of them. It does not speak to how they died, or when, under what
circumstances. Bodies are often burned as a measure against the spread of
disease.

Some 250,000 people, mostly Jews, are thought to have died in the camp.

'Some.' Is that a scientific way to say they are guessing?
As for 'mostly jews,' how did they make that deduction from the charred
remains? I have yet to hear of any means of determining the religion of any
charred remains not known to the party making such a claim.
' . . . are thought to have died in the camp.'
Why did the researchers pose this as their thought?
They would have to be expert witnesses for their testimony to be worthwhile
in court, and the statement would not be accepted if any one of the
researchers had said: I think some 250,000 people, mostly jews, died in the
camp.'
