let

    #"Replaced Value" = Table.ReplaceValue(Source,null,0,Replacer.ReplaceValue,{"Count Name 1", "Count Name 2", "Count Name 3"}),
    #"Uppercased Text" = Table.TransformColumns(#"Replaced Value",{{"Name 1", Text.Upper, type text}, {"Name 2", Text.Upper, type text}, {"Name 3", Text.Upper, type text}}),
    #"Removed Columns" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Uppercased Text",{"Column1"}),
    #"Unpivoted Columns" = Table.UnpivotOtherColumns(#"Removed Columns", {}, "Attribute", "Value"),
    #"Added Custom" = Table.AddColumn(#"Unpivoted Columns", "Custom", each if Text.StartsWith([Attribute], "Count") then [Value] else null),
    #"Filled Up" = Table.FillUp(#"Added Custom",{"Custom"}),
    #"Filtered Rows" = Table.SelectRows(#"Filled Up", each ([Custom] = 1) and ([Value] <> 1)),
    #"Removed Columns1" = Table.RemoveColumns(#"Filtered Rows",{"Attribute"}),
    #"Grouped Rows" = Table.Group(#"Removed Columns1", {"Value"}, {{"Count", each Table.RowCount(_), Int64.Type}}),
    #"Sorted Rows" = Table.Sort(#"Grouped Rows",{{"Value", Order.Ascending}})
in
    #"Sorted Rows"

this also assumes that conventions like aBc = ABC or similar variations
