The Viet Nam War was similar to World War 2 but did not involve the entire world stage and forces. That is the most recent war that was anything near to being like World War 2.
If you do not count the Viet Nam War and the Korean War then that statement saying there were more deaths in the war on terrorism than in the Cold War would be true. However, it is not true. If you consider the Cold War fought as an arms race and conflict of CIA vs. KGB that statement would hold true since there were less deaths. Since the Viet Nam War and the Korean War and the War in Afghanistan (with Russia) were all part of the Cold War then it is not true. So more people died in the Cold War than in the War on Terrorism.
