I'm not sure what you're even trying to do with multiple wildcard and NO destination directory given. Copy files into multiple destinations or what? cp doesn't do that, it takes one destination.
What files are you trying to copy, from what source, to what destination? Be specific.

install
install(1) General Commands Manual install(1)
Name
install - install binaries
Syntax
install [-c] [-m mode] [-o owner] [-g group] [-s] binary destination
Description
The binary is moved to destination. If destination already exists, it is removed before binary is moved. If the destination is a direc-
tory then binary is moved into the destination directory with its original file-name.
The command refuses to move a file onto itself.
Options
-c Copies binary to destination.
-g group Specifies a different group from group staff for destination. The destination is changed to group system; the -g group
option may be used to specify a different group. The user must belong to the specified group and be the owner of the
file or the superuser.
-m mode Specifies a different mode from the standard 755 for destination.
-o owner Specifies a different owner from owner root for destination. The destination is changed to current owner. The -o
owner option may be used to specify a different owner, but only the superuser can change the owner.
-s Strips the binary after it is installed.
