The cop issues me a traffic ticket for spillback. On the ticket he didn’t write my drivers license number and missed one digit from my license plate number.

Can this ticket be dismissed based on this?

No, it can't. Pay the fine and move on with your life.

Nope - can't be dismissed on the reasons you gave.

Spillback is old fashioned gridlock. There is no reason for you to go into an intersection unless you KNOW you can get to other side before light changes. (WOW - we'll all have to watch that.)

Ah, I see, it's a non-moving violation, no problem, he would have no points assessed

It's a huge annoyance and thus, quite an expensive ticket.
