If you really want to kill all zombies, you should turn off the zombie population growth setting in Project Zomboid settings. Even in this case, it will still be very difficult to kill all zombies. If you look at it, it will take about 5-6 months, the map of the game is very large and at the same time you will need to find new weapons and you will need to consider the health and hunger status of your character.

You'll need to have the best Project Zomboid weapon to easily take out so many zombies, and it takes time to find them.
