Just like in 1906, it won't be the earthquake that kills the most people but the resulting fires.
Think of the forest fires that burnt down Santa Rosa.
In a dense city like SF, it will only take the fire spreading to a few adjacent blocks before it overwhelms the fire departments ability to put it out and that will be it. SF will turn into Coffey park.
