If Russia will blow up Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant in Ukraine, then huge area of productive land and sea can be heavily contaminated, which can lead to global famine, which can kill millions.

This might be news to you, but Russia has the world's largest stockpile of nuclear weapons and can kill billions of people, if it wanted to. They get to pick the amount of damage that they want to cause and then do that much damage. Anything from no damage to possible end of humanity. Similarly then can contaminate whatever area they want to.

Zaporizhzhia Nuclear Plant doesn't really factor in to that picture.
