That has nothing to do with falsification of history.
If these people are eventually found out to have been lying about their hardship, they become criminally fraudulent in their representation of historic events that they had a direct monetary benefit from, not to mention the oppression of innocent Germans who have been wrongfully vilified as a result of the lies leveled against them.
I'm also old enough to have run across a few numeric tattoo wearers in the wild. The Holocaust happened. It was just one more attempt at genocide in a long, bloody world history of them.
There is so much going on in today's world to rail at. Why not direct your energy at doing something to correct an ill that has an impact on your own generation?
Not very many people claim it didn't and that's not mentioned in the linked article. Some people are curious about the severity claimed and a lot of carefree Jews running around Europe directly after the war gives weight to the curiosity.
Don't be one of those people who deny the right to explore history with an open mind.
Would have been awfully nice if someone had been able to actually document it, or find evidence. The Red cross made regular trips to all the camps before the Allies destroyed the rail lines.
Nope. But I am old enough to have lived through some crappy times and know better than to dwell on them.

To me, that's absolutely worth investigating.

There's exploring history, and then there is policing people's reaction to their lived experience by what you feel is an appropriate response.
Maybe it is your lived experience that is coloring your reaction to these photos.
Are you a what is done is done, today is a new day type?
Or are you the type who gets stuck on past failures and losses and can't let go?
I see happy people making most of a good night, because they know what a bad night really can look like.
That you are suspicious of happy people is suggestive that perhaps your own outlook is a bit grim.

The Red Cross actually kept rather good records of it. Their numbers are vastly different.
So, you mean like the jews' overwhelming urge to fake hate crimes against them for victim points?
