Can anybody explain me how the heck the %2$s works?

I’ve been trying to get the widget number, without the word “text-” before it, and I can’t figure it out.

Is that a way to retrieve ANY variable?
Do they have to be setup to be retrieved with that percent sign?
Is there other way to get the widget number (inside that sidebar)?

Thanks.
