How to correlate log collection with specific Windows eventcode?

Hello,

I'm trying to find a search to correlate (graph overlay) log collect with specific windows eventcode (4608 for windows is starting up ; 6005 :The event log service was started 6006 The Event log service was stopped)

like this 

 host=machine | timechart count by host

and the other part would be 

host=machine EventCode=4608 OR EventCode=6005 OR EventCode=6006  | timechart count by EventCode

I'm a little bit lost with appendcols /append/ join ...

How can I do this? Thank you for your help

I believe the below search you shared should give you what you are expecting.

<p>host=machine EventCode=4608 OR EventCode=6005 OR EventCode=6006  | timechart count by EventCode</p>

I'm searching to have a chart overlay. A curve representing the log collection (log event count) of the universal forwarder machine, and a column chart for windows eventcode for the same universal forwarder. the x-axis would be _time

host=machine EventCode=4608 OR EventCode=6005 OR EventCode=6006  | chart count over _time by EventCode

click on visualization format option go to y-axis choose count as chart overlay.
