god, when was the last time a singular wildfire resulted in this many fatalities? it doesn't seem unreasonable to think that this fire will ultimately have 150, 200, or possibly more deaths associated with it, which seems basically unprecedented in recent memory from what i've seen.
another update came in a few hours ago, and the death toll is now 71, with over 1,000 missing or unaccounted for, although that's likely to decrease due to things like duplicates and double counts.

There's a pretty good article: California wildfires: Is Trump right when he blames forest managers? on the BBC that includes some historical data.
