Our question: if you were Nazis operating a key "extermination camp" in Poland in the 1940s [Auschwitz], why on Earth would you allow thousands of Jews to leave once they arrived? [1] Those Jews could a) tell others, e.g. the Red Cross about the "extermination" at Auschwitz upon arrival at another camp; B] escape during the transfer and tell others about Auschwitz; c) possibly never be "gassed" due to an administration foul-up.
The answer to the above question, of course, is that you would NOT allow any Jews to leave Auschwitz if that camp was a key, planned extermination camp [and not simply a camp were Jews and others died from disease or starvation].
Jews: God's 'Favorite' Racketeers
[1] "Total number of Jews transferred from Auschwitz, 1941-1944 100,743" -- 1944 was the supposed peak "gassing" period

The Nazis' blunder was bigger than that: judging by the number of "survivors," they must have let millions out of Auschwitz! I've never visited that camp, but it must be as big as Belgium. :D

Auschwitz was no extermination camp. Auschwitz was a complex of various camps, Auschwitz I, II, III and many sub-camps. There were extermination facilities in Auschwitz in late 1941, early 1942 and after that in Auschwitz II. The pure extermination camps were situated far in the East at the border of Generalgouvernement, in Treblinka, Belzec and Sobibor.
