The fact that the destruction was caused by a single bomb was shocking to those that appreciated that fact from a distance.

The destruction it caused was on par with conventional overnight HE+incendiary raids already carried for months across Japan and previously across Germany prior to German surrender.

From photographs and M&M stats alone it would be difficult to seperate destruction in Hiroshima from that in Tokyo.
