In the filter data, is there a way to count how many options I can pick?

I would explore creating a relation based on those dates (make sure you use either a number that represents the date, or a template column to lock the format in), and a rollup for counting.

Then, add a template column that combines the date with the rollup, and filter based on that.

Though, I wouldn’t use that filter with dates though. There’s no way for it to scale well.
