Fairly certain that spellhit has no noticable effect on lowering the resistance to silence or counterspell effects by talents, items, auras or other sources.

My mage, with +16% hit to arcane, still has his counterspells resisted atleast 15% of the time against priests, and my shadow priest, with an equal amount of hit to shadow, gets her silence resisted just as often.

Though, I've done no actual testing - just a few years of experience playing the game too much than can really be healthy.
