grep -w "Image 0" ImageSizeDetails.txt|awk '{print $3}'

grep -w "Image 0" ImageSizeDetails.txt|cut -d " " -f3
i dont think, second grep command will work.

Code:
 
$ cat a.txt
   Image 0: 1672879 Bytes = 1633.67 kB = 1.60 MB
$ grep -w "Image 0" a.txt | cut -d " " -f3
 
$ grep -w "Image 0" a.txt | cut -d " " -f5
0:
 
$ grep -w "Image 0" a.txt | cut -d " " -f6
1672879
