I think, thus should be
(setq gnus-thread-sort-functions '(gnus-thread-sort-by-number)
gnus-article-sort-functions '(gnus-article-sort-by-number))
then.

Well, above you've said you want to sort by number and then you present
an example which is not sorted by number... I don't know how thunderbird
sorts, so I cannot come up with a "just like thunderbird" configuration.

If it gives a different result for you than for me that's really strange
given that be both seem to use quite similar Emacs/Gnus versions.
Sorry, I don't have any ideas left.
BTW, you can also re-sort the summary buffer interactively using the
commands bound to the C-c C-s prefix. That's probably quicker to find a
sorting version that suits your needs.
Bye,
