Assuming you already have the fields extracted, try this.

... | eval count_of_missing_dates = mvcount(split(missing_dates, ",")) | ...

Or, to be more verbose...

your base search 
| where Msg="SUCCESS" 
| eval count_of_missing_dates = mvcount(split(missing_dates, ",")) 
| table Name Config count_of_missing_dates Msg
