If you don't want to bother with scripting, you can copy/paste each column into a 'Number' component. Right click on a number component and select 'manage number collection'. It will allow you to paste a column from excel and will read the numbers correctly. Since you have 3 columns, you'll have to do this 3 times, one 'number' component for each column.
Btw, you are trying to insert directly the 3 columns into the rotation input. This input will only read a list of numbers (one column of numbers). If you want to merge the 3 columns into one, one after another, use a 'merge streams' component, connect the number components to it and it to the 'rotation angle' input of the rotate component.
