The majority of Jews who were taken to Sobibor were Polish. There were a decent number of Ukrainian gaurds. Later in the camps history a group of Jewish Soviet POW's were sent to Sobibor (one of which was Sasha Pechersky who led the escape from Sobibor in 1943). The remaining small percent were German and Dutch.
At the end of the war there were about 50 known survivors and an estimated further 10-20 survivors from Sobibor. It was an extermination camp, not a forced labour camp and arrivals were usually gassed within 24 hours of reaching the camp. The Sobibor death toll is generally estimated at about 250,000.
The prisoners were all jews, from all over Europe. Most of the camp guards were Ukrainians, only the senior camp staff were German SS men.
Sobibor was an extermination camp. Its sole purpose was to to kill. However, a small number of new arrivals were selected to help with the extermination process, for example, by sorting valuables and by getting rid of the corpses. In October 1943 there was a revolt by these men and a mass breakout. This was led by Alexander Perchersky and Leon Feldhendler. About 300 prisoners managed to get out. Many were recaptured but about 100 were still alive at the end of World War 2. Compare this figure with a death toll of about 250,000. So, only 300 'passed through' Sobibor ...

Sobibor is located in a Polish forest about 12 km south of the village of Sobibor in the small locality named Stare Kolonia Sobibor.
Since she escaped from Sobibor, but not survived the escape, she probably died. So that's irony, escaping without it being useful
over 5,000,000,000 people
