Do you already have the files named?
If so something like this should work.
----------
NUM="054"
for i in `ls`
do
NAME=`basename $i .txt`
mv $i ${NAME}${NUM}.txt
NUM=`echo "${NUM} + 1" | bc`
done
--------
Note that this results in $NUM being the numeric value and it will lose
the leading 0s, so if it is important that it have a fixed number of
digits you will have to test the value of $NUM and pad it with leading
0s appropriately.
