Upon impact everything within ~1000km of the epicenter was incinerated. I forget how many nuclear bombs it was equivalent to. visible from space. The ash and dust got trapped in the atmosphere, trapping the heat of the impact, making the air an oven 400F. It cooked *most* of them alive. 24hrs.

In that general area of impact yeah, but there were dinosaurs across the planet and they were not incinerated. It exploded with the power of 72 teratonnes of tnt and created a magnitude 9 - 11 seismic event.

It hit modern day US and Mexico pretty hard on impact, but it was the climate change from the impact debris in the atmosphere that did the rest of the planet's dinos in
