Maybe that is an copy/paste problem, but your JSON-String is missing some }. But that is not the issue. If you want to access thumbnail (lowercase) in your json, try following:

<?php

$json = '{"response": {"status":1,"httpStatus":200,"data":[{"offer_id":"6912","Thumbnail":{"10116":{"id":"10116","offer_id":"6912","display":"Icandytv_IN_Call (04-30-19-20-51).gif","thumbnail":"https://media.go2speed.org/brand/files/mobvista/6912/thumbnails_100/Icandytv_IN_Call(04-30-19-20-51).gif"}}}],"errors":[],"errorMessage":null}}';

// Make JSON accessible for PHP
$data = json_decode($json);

// Get access to Thumbnail object
$thumbnail0 = $data->response->data[0]->Thumbnail;

// Get access to thumbnail object "10116"
$thumbnail_10116 = $thumbnail0->{"10116"};

// Thumbnail Url
$thumbnailUrl = $thumbnail_10116->thumbnail;

echo $thumbnailUrl . "\n";

// or in one swoop
$thumbnailUrl2 = $data->response->data[0]->Thumbnail->{"10116"}->thumbnail;

echo $thumbnailUrl2 . "\n";

?>

Hope, that helps
