Since you seem to think a body can be cremated in 15 minutes, why don't you show me a super duper high tech crema oven of today that can do just that? I won't even ask you to show me a 1945 one.
I'm sure it can be done. the crematoria were industrial scale, operating almost full time and dealing with corpses that were probably weighing at around 70lbs. The things basically fueled themselves, and with no need to provide relatives wit remains could produce large piece remains pretty quickly. Couple that with the body pits, and you have a lot of remains disappearing quickly.
Honestly, to equate it into modern terms would not be possible. Crematoria reduce bodies weighing at least twice as much into a fine ash is not the same as the convenient reduction used by the Nazis during WWII.
