MCD is the output of the LED in terms of 'milli-candela', ie candle power...

i would go for a much higher output, but it also depends exactly where you are putting them... you could put a lot of low output LED's around the dials, or maybe use a few high output LED's in place of the globes. globes have a pretty high output to start with, and also have the benefit of having 360 illumination, whereas LED's a not as bright and are much more focussed..
prolly not much help but 
oh, 20,000mcd LED's are pretty bright 
you can also get bright 10mm LED's (i'm getting some red, orange and yellow ones soon) which may spread the light more... will see..
