By June 1941, when Germany invaded the Soviet Union, Himmler controlled not only the police but the political administration of the occupied territories and, through his control of the SS, the concentration camp system.
In 1943, Hitler appointed Himmler minister for the interior.
In this post he oversaw the 'Final Solution' - the attempt to exterminate all the Jewish people in Europe - and administered the system of forced labour. http://www.bbc.co.uk/history/historic_figures/himmler_heinrich.shtml
