Interesting...even at 10k to 12k, Soviet divisions were still much smaller than US divisions. The only thing I can think of is Soviet divisions didn't have as many organic support units. They relied on corp, or even army level artillery units for their fire support.
This wiki article Bobruysk Offensive - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia states that a full strength Soviet rifle division in 1944 had only 7200 men.
