Yes, if every missile was sent to a city to cause maximum death (countervalue) then it could. But more likely a lot of the missiles would be sent to military targets (counterforce) leaving fewer for civilian bombings. So a nuclear war between any of the big three nuclear powers would likely kill hundreds of millions, and maybe billions but not sure especially since that would depend on the after effects.
