Russian lost that many tanks, because of 2 reasons.
1) they not planed any defence("Thanks" to Zhukov)They planed to "liberate" Europe from Nazi creature.
2)All main offensive forces were concentrated in 2
salient's,northeren- Belostokskiy,and Southern,I dont remember the name,sorry..
Those 2 army groups was surrouned by Germans,Germans got ALL Supply depots of those armies.Plus Zhukov, the head of general headquarters(GenStab),
Ordered not to answer on German provocation's,and do not shoot down planes.(Thank you great Zhukov!)
