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 ...
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.
Nearly all the 250,000 victims at Sobibor was Jews. It was an Operation Reinhard extermination camp intended specifically to kill Jews. It is possible that some gypsies were also killed there.
Sobibor had three work camps. These camps were part of the Operation Reinhard extermination program during World War II. The first two work camps (known as Camp I and Camp II) were used to deceive prisoners and maintain a facade of a labor camp. The third work camp, Camp III, was the extermination camp itself, where mass killings took place.
Approximately 1000 people died in the Amersfoort concentration camp.

Approximately 1000 people died in the Amersfoort concentration camp.
Sonderkommandos were at the death camps: Auschwitz, Birkenau, Sobibor, Treblinka, Belzec, and Chelmno. Though every camp needed burial and corpse disposal squads (as there were many deaths from starvation/disease, exhaustion/beating and euthenasia).
