Most of the numbers in the link are the bodycounts of soldiers, not civilians. And the count for 'slavery' is laughably small and only deals with slaves executed as punishment; far, far more slaves were worked to death in the fields and mines. You really, really didn't want to be a Roman slave, unless you were an educated Greek.
