The numbers I can find are all over the spectrum, as there is little documentation pertaining to the Roma holocaust; this is still being discussed by historians:
Roma (Gypsies):
BBC News: 220,000 to 500,000
Hammond: 250,000.
Rummel: 258,000.
Mazower, Dark Continent: 200,000-500,000.
Porter: 500,000
Brzezinski: 800,000
Ian Hancock, "Responses to the Romani Holocaust" in Is the Holocaust Unique? (A. Rosenbaum, ed.) cites these:
US Holocaust Memorial Museum: 250,000
"several published estimates": >1,000,000
Pauwels and Bergier: 750,000
Financial Times (London): 500-750,000 in death camps and another million shot outside.
Jana Horvathova, the deputy director of the Museum of Roma Culture in Brno: The numbers vary between 350,000 and two million. I personally think that there were about half a million victims."
500,000
