Xenu was supposed to have gathered up all the overpopulation in this sector of the galaxy, brought them to Earth and then exterminated them using hydrogen bombs. The souls of these murdered people are then supposed to infest the body of everyone. They are called "body thetans".

"This your Captain Xenu speaking, and on behalf of the flight crew, I'd like to welcome you aboard Clone Airways. Sorry for the interruption, but would persons A to F please go to cargo bay 2."

And then blow the hatch of cargo bay 2, releasing everyone into space.
