Hammering the struggling debutants at the Kalinga Stadium in India's Bhubaneswar city, the Dutch surpassed a previous record of 12-0 set by Australia against South Africa in 2010.
The three-time winners finished top of the pool and became the first team into the quarterfinals.
Jip Janssen kicked off the score-fest in the sixth minute, putting away the first goal on a penalty corner, followed by back-to-back goals by Derck de Vilder and Thijs Van Dam in the 22nd and 23rd minutes.
Skipper Thierry Brinkman struck another in the 25th minute, before Janssen scored his second in the 29th to notch a 5-0 halftime lead.
Brinkman got a second in the first three minutes of the second half to restart the demolition. Janssen completed his hat-trick in the next minute from another penalty corner.
Terrance Pieters, Koen Bijen and Justen Blok produced three more successful strikes, with Janssen hitting his fourth towards the end of the third quarter.
Bijen dealt another blow to Chile in the 45th minute before Teun Beins converted a penalty corner three minutes later.
Brinkman completed his hat-trick for the 14th goal just two minutes before fulltime.
Elsewhere, Malaysia finished second on the table after a 3-2 win over New Zealand. Australia, England and Belgium lead the other three pools respectively.
Outside the World Cup, India currently holds the record for goals in an international hockey match, set during their 26-0 win over Hong Kong during the 2018 Asian Games.
