Holocaust symbol is like a star it has 6 edgesand people who were Jewish used that symbol.They even used a number in their hands.

I'm not sure that there was one specific one. there were many. One of the most common ones, was a star of david otherwise known as the Jewish star. this is the symbol of Judaism. it comes from when david fought goliath and on his (davids) shield was a 6 pointed star. in the Holocaust these stars of david were yellow, with the word juif or Jude, depending on whether you were a male or female Jew. these were to be sewn to all Jews clothing otherwise they would be arrested. non-Jews that felt for Jews, bore the sign upon their clothing along with them.
