The man, in his 40s, was the only person injured in the crash, it added.
Warwickshire Police said his family had been informed and officers have appealed for any witnesses to come forward.
Detectives said that a red Fiat Punto, a white Renault traffic van and a Mercedes HGV were involved in the crash.
The crash caused congestion back to junction five, as well as on the northbound M42.
