I assume 597 is taken from Screenrant's count, or the same source, as they have the same figure, and according to them he notches up 235 kills in Spectre alone. That's like 40% in the last film, but 150+ of those are from him blowing up people we never see in Blofeld's lair. So estimates vary. It's definitely way more than 23 though!
