queer people were rounded up and shoved in boxcars like cattle in far greater numbers than the Jews ever were.
Doubtful, simply because there were far more Jews living in Germany than gays. According to Stonewall UK:
Between 1933 and 1945, an estimated 100,000 men were arrested in Nazi Germany as ‘homosexuals’, of whom 50,000 were sentenced, and between 5,000 and 15,000 were sent to concentration camps. Lesbians, bi women and trans people, whose experiences remain under-researched, were also targeted. It is unclear how many LGBT people perished in these camps.

People like the author of this post are very concerned with victim status and a hierarchy of suffering. In their minds, acknowledging that Jews were the Nazis' primary target takes away from the importance of homosexual victims.
