The more dead glowplugs you have, the more cylinders you have not firing off right away when you try to start....1 will make it start rough with smoke....2 will begin to take longer cranking and more smoke/roughness....3 or more and its probably going to be luck/or a very healthy engine that starts in real low temps with 3 or more out.
