If you go by Overmans
Eastern Front until 12/31/44 2,742,909
Western Front until 12/31/44 339,957
makes eastern front 91%. If you look at the size of the battles in Western front it's hard to see how would the figure exceed 339k.
For comparison, Stalingrad alone claims 500k Germans and 900k axis total. Battle of Moscow estimates 500k killed, missing, wounded or captured.
Now we can play with semantics. Are we looking at killed only, or captured and wounded or otherwise incapacitated? Is it Germans only of axis.
I think did overstate. To put it better, I would say 90% of Nazi power was defeated in Eastern front.
