You're right that having the 2x4s rest on the floor will help with the weight, but the remaining weight will still want to pull away from the wall. Regardless, I think that 3 appropriately sized anchors per stud into the wall will be enough. You won't need an anchor at all near the bottom, so I'd keep them nearer the top, maybe one above each shelf or two.
The bigger problem you'll have with that design, I think, is properly supporting the shelves with wooden shelf supports. This is especially true if you're fastening the 2x4s flat against the wall, since you'll now be fastening the shelf supports to the 1.5" side. Instead of making wooden shelf supports, I'd strongly suggest just using some sort of metal 90-degree shelf bracket.
