No....we have 51 now we pick up FL1, IN1, ND1, MO1, MS1 = 56 assuming we hold AZ and NV.

Not sure why you are counting MS as a pickup. There are already two GOP senators from MS: Roger Wicker & Cindy Hyde-Smith. Wicker won and Smith is going to a run-off which she will win. It won't be a pickup.

Both MS seats count as holds, not gains, as recent rat Hyde-Smith is technically an R. To get to 56 we need to pick up MT too.

I think Florida was called for Scott, so with ND, MO, and IN all called for Republicans, that is now 53 correct. IF we hold NV and AZ. The other MS seat is going to a runoff but I would expect to hold that one. So 56 is definitely in play.
