People with mild cases aren’t getting counted in the same way so that number is likely very incorrect. What we know is that we are very far of the death toll of seasonal flue which is estimated to be around 291,000 - 646,000 globaly.
That's like saying "I planted an oak tree last year. It's smaller than the pine trees that have been growing here for 50 years, therefore oak trees are smaller than pine trees"
The death toll is currently at 3,000 about 2 months after the Coronavirus first appeared in one location. The seasonal flu is caused by viruses that have been constantly circulating all around the world for years or decades. You can't really compare total deaths at this point.
