First thing that crossed my mind, but didn't it end up lasting several weeks, if not months? Doesn't fit the OP's constraint.

The entire population of Hiroshima doesn't even come close to 1.2 million.

The OP's criteria is retarded. Only an A-Bomb could possibly be the answer. I first started thinking horrific death toll, but then the worst actually in human history. Both those libraries being destroyed I think would reign supreme in that regard. And Baghdad was the most horrific scene in the last thousand years even without the library being destroyed. The rivers ran black it was so horrific.

Thankfully the Japanese believe cows and chickens are to blame after we admitted to lying about the whales and dolphins.

300,000 instant deaths, the final toll was much worse due to the after effects. I will look for the numbers but this estimate was based on later deaths due to radiation poisoning, destruction of services, irradiation of food and water sources, cancer cases etc.

I would like to see the support for that figure.
Pre-bomb population was 330-360k.

That was the one that immediately came to my mind as well, but it looks like the 16th century earthquake in China was a lot more than that.

Speaking of Hiroshima I read a story once about a few people there who then rode the train to ... Nagasaki.

Not a day but a year, 70 AD, created the monster that took over the world.
