If you are not in the position to stick with Markdown, you can do as below:

• on GitHub/wiki: switch Markdown to MediaWiki. Use __TOC__ Syntax. See sample.
• on GitHub/repo: switch Markdown to AsciiDoc. Use :toc: Syntax. See demo.

However, using Markdown files in GitHub/repo, you can get it on GitHub Pages like in Wikipedia

• when Jekyll is activated, it generates GitHub Pages using Kramdown by default
• Kramdown comes with Table Of Content. Use {:toc} Syntax. See the explanation.
