Let's say another WW2 style holocaust occured. Which would be properly referred to when using the word?

The compound word genocide didn't even exist before WW2. Sure the Latin prefix and suffix existed, but never in that combination. Your argument is completely invalidated by this fact alone.

We're talking about the word "holocaust".
