2) John Von Neumann - One of the greatest mathematciain of 20th century. Conceived Von Neumann architecture
3) Robert Oppenheimer - Father of Atomic Bomb
4) Martin Cooper - Inventor of Mobile Phone
5) Kart Landsteiner - Inventor of blood groups and Rhesus Factor. One of the most influential scientist in history.

You mean the Haber-Bosch process ? Carl Bosch was not a jew, and you cant say how many lives their discoveries saved.

Bosch contributed to process by applying it to industry. Haber was the one who came up with the idea to synthsize Ammonia.
And yes, it's estimated that atleast 2 billion lives are saved due to Haber process.

Where would these people have died ?

[Smaug]

Alberto Santos Dumont

[Bell Beaker]

Pedro Nunes, Portuguese Mathematican, inventor of Nonios

In the early twenty-first century, the effectiveness of the Haber process (and its analogues) is such that more than 99 percent of global demand for synthetic ammonia, a demand which exceeds 100 million tons annually, is satisfied thereby. Nitrogen fertilizers and synthetic products, such as urea and ammonium nitrate, are mainstays of industrial agriculture, and are essential to the nourishment of at least two billion people

This website also states that Haber process saved over 2 billion lives.
