DIA is in the midst of a new master planning process now. So far, it looks like a 7th runway is needed today (another east-west), and 9-10 in the 2030/2035 planning timeframe.
Keep in mind, at any given time, depending mostly on wind conditions, only the north-south or east-west runways might be in use. That cuts down significantly on weather related days that older and/or land-constrained airports have to deal with, and not just storms and snow.
