if mikev is in your wordlist and you use the mask ?d?d?d, it should find mikev619. but it probably didn't find it because the hash in your screenshot is not the ntlm hash of "mikev619."
pretending you didn't know what the plaintext was, that actually is how you would go about it. at some point you will start appending numbers to dictionary words, so you'll do dict + ?d, dict + ?d?d, dict + ?d?d?d, so on and so forth.
