In the ending credit epilogue, it's stated that Meyer Lansky died one of the richest men in America. This isn't true, Lansky invested heavily in casinos and resorts in Cuba, After the Cuban Revolution in 1959, the Cuban government seized all assets from foreign investors. Lansky's estate was worth a mere $57,000 upon his death. He maintained that Cuba ruined him as he was once worth over $300M prior to the Cuban Revolution.

In the ending scene when Charlie his partners and the rest of certain NYC mobsters including Al Capone are all at the table to form the Commission this is fictional for two reason 1 Al Capone was actually run out of NYC by the Mob there and he fled to Chicago and became the known gangster he was feared as and number 2 Capone was never apart of Commission his Outfit in Chicago was ran separate from the 5 families in NYC..
In the scene when Charlie saves the life of Don Masseria the Don is guarded by at least a dozen armed bodyguards but in the scene when Charlie and him are eating at the restaurant Siegel and Costello walks in and assassinates him easily kinda strange to not have one single bodyguard around in this scene when earlier in the movie several bodyguards were always by his side..
In the scene when the hit is taking place on Don Masseria at the restaurant, when Costello and Siegel pump shotgun rounds into him you can clearly see the stunt double as he's blown backwards at the table..
