With 7 lvl of shadow blade I will do each attack 5d8. With action surge this will give me a total of 4 attacks with shadow blade to a total of 20d8. With divine smite with each attack and using spell slots of 5 and above this will give me another 20d8 (4 times 5d8) to a grand total of 20d8+mod+20d8.
My question is as follows:
If I got this right? And if I did, does it worth it? After one turn I will use all my 6,7,8 lvl spells and will be quite weak after this turn.
That's what you can do at level 20. Everyone can do crazy stuff at level 20, and many of them can do it more than once per long rest. What are you going to do before level 20, or on subsequent turns? You'll be pretty upset if you don't roll well on your attacks, too.

Best regards and thank you for your time.
Not quite, technically it would be (5d8+mod+5d8)x4. Don’t cheat yourself out of the extra modifier damage. But you wouldn’t want to use a spell slot above 4th level for the smites.
So I am wondering how viable this combination is.
With 2 fighter/ 2 paladin/ 16 wizard.

Even a blind squirrel finds a nut once in awhile.
