You can achieve that making a substring of the number you want to find and then appending that to the string you need.

The code would be as follows:

    //the original String
    String somestring = "http://www.prsn.uprm.edu/Spanish/Informe_Sismo/myinfoGeneral.php?id=20161206012821";
    //save the index of the string '=' since after that is were you find your number, remember to add one as the begin index is inclusive
    int beginIndex = somestring.indexOf("=") + 1;
    //if the number ends the string then save the length of the string as the end, you can change this index if that's not the case
    int endIndex = somestring.length();
    //Obtain the substring using the indexes you obtained (if the number ends the string you can ignore the second index, but i leave it here so you may use it if that's not the case)
    String theNumber = somestring.substring(beginIndex,endIndex);
    //printing the number for testing purposes
    System.out.println("The number is: " + theNumber);
    //Then create a new string with the data you want (I recommend using StringBuilder) with the first part of what you want
    StringBuilder sb=new StringBuilder("http://shake.uprm.edu/~shake/archive/shake/");
    // add the number
    sb.append(theNumber);
    //then the rest of the string
    sb.append("/download/tvmap.jpg");
    //Saving the String in a variable
    String endResult = sb.toString();
    //Verifying end result 
    System.out.println("The end result is: "+endResult);

After that you can put the String into Glide I hope It was clear and well explained.

Do it like this

String url = "http://www.prsn.uprm.edu/Spanish/Informe_Sismo/myinfoGeneral.php?id=20161206012821";
String[] array = url.split("id=");
String id  = array[1];
String urlToLoad = "http://shake.uprm.edu/~shake/archive/shake/"+id+"/download/tvmap.jpg"
Glide.with(context).load(urlToLoad).into(holder.Thumbnail);

Then use this id where you want to use
