I think copying to a new Solr date field is your best bet, because then you have the flexibility to do date range facets in the future.
If you can re-index, and are using Data Import Handler, Jim Musil's suggestion is just right. If you can re-index, and are not using Data Import Handler: - This seems a job for an UpdateRequestProcessor <https://cwiki.apache.org/confluence/display/solr/Update+Request+Processors>, but I don't see one for this. - This seems to be a good candidate for a standard, core UpdateRequestProcessor, but I haven't checked Jira for a bug report. If the scale is too large to re-index, then there is surely still a way, but I'm not sure I can advise you on the best one. I'm not an Solr expert yet... just someone on the list with a IR background.
