It didn't split the Confederacy in two. It was a punitive raid of destruction that simply helped to destroy the Southern economy and starve the Confederate armies in the field.

Splitting the Confederacy in two is what Grant (and Sherman) achieved earlier in the Siege of Vicksburg, which ended with the liberation of the Mississippi.
