Since October, Israel has launched at least 7,400 into Gaza.

Between June 1944 and March 1945 the Germans hurled 10,500 V-1s at Great Britain. Most of the missiles never reached their targets.

I couldn't easily find the # of rockets from the allies, though I'd guess it's a much smaller number, since they were delayed compared to Germany.

I couldn't find an easy # for the Ukrainian and Russian war.

So unless this latest disaster in Gaza ends soon, I'm betting they will handily beat the V-1 rockets.

Note: I'm not trying to side either way in this comment between any of the countries involved, All of the conflicts are a mess and I'm definitely not qualified to have an informed opinion.

A rocket that flies 50 km, or even 500 km, while reaching 2-3M and carrying 200 kg of payload, is a much, much simpler machine than a rocket that makes it to LEO and reaches about 26M while carrying several tons of payload. (And then deorbits and lands!)

You have your directions mixed up. It's 7,400 from Gaza into Israel.

Also, they're "missiles" in the same sense that your fireworks are missiles. Death count is zero.

The V-1 was not a rocket; it was a “flying bomb” powered by a jet engine, what we would today call a “cruise missile”, except cruise missiles tend to have guidance systems. The V-2 was the rocket.

If you’re going to count the rockets in the Gaza conflict (which are predominantly fired by Hamas and PIJ against Israel) or the rockets being used in Ukraine, those aren’t nearly as sophisticated as even the V-2. Those systems are more analogous to the Soviet “Katyusha”. There were different Katyusha variants, but one of the most common was the BM-13, which could fire a salvo of 24 rockets from a truck before being reloaded. Thousands of Katyushas were produced, so I’m pretty sure they account for hundreds of thousands of rockets overall. Very similar to the Katyusha rocket (in fact, basically the exact same rocket for the Soviets at the time) are the rockets fired by airplanes and later helicopters at ground targets, so you could add those in as well.

And if you want to get downright pedantic and count every type of rocket, there are also various shoulder launched rocket launchers like the RPG which are extremely common. Guided missiles are also technically rockets. So the actual numbers are much, much, much higher than you think.

And one day at an amateur high powered rocketry launch and you'll get 100(s?) of launch(es).
