I have configured the SolrCloud collection-wise only and there is no other way. The way you have defined 3 zkHosts (comma separated values for zkHost property), I tried that one before as it was more intuitive. But it did not work for me. I had to use 3 different replica elements each for one of the 3 SolrCloud clusters. source and target properties mention the same collection name in my case. Instead of hardcoding it, I am using the collection.configName variable which gets replaced by the collection name to which this solrconfig.xml belongs to.
I am pretty sure that ${collection.configName} refers to the configuration name stored in zookeeper, NOT the collection name. There is nothing at all in Solr that requires those names to be the same, and for many SolrCloud installs, they are not the same. If this is working for you, then you're probably naming your configs the same as the collection. If you were to ever use the same config on multiple collections, that would probably stop working.
I do not know if there is a property with the collection name. There probably is.
