The Great Flood is something that kept me off religion. Everybody died, except for those chosen few. Everybody, including Polynesians, people who had never had the chance to "know the one true god".
But there's another one, old testament IIRC. In Genesis 19 (NIV) God decides to destroy Sodom and Gomorrah for being "wholly wicked and evil." Then He sends down two angels to warn the only holy man in Sodom. When "the crowd" discovers that angelic beings were in town they attacked Lot's house, demanding the angels, who evidently couldn't take care of themselves, be given to the mob. Lot offers his daughters, "who had never known men" instead. I guess "holy" is flexible if there's a crowd outside?
My point in the above is that it's yet another mass murder to solve a relatively fixable point, with, say 9-10 plagues?
Everybody, up to and including babes in the womb, died. And one woman, Lot's wife, was murdered where she stood because her family, and everyone she'd ever known, were being killed to a make a religious point.
Others?
