It's a rather odd requirement. Typcially you'd flush the entire queue, or delete by date, or delete by content.

There's nothing out of the box that will do this. If it's a one-off task you could unload the queue, delete the messages you want and reload the queue; if it's an on-going task you'll need to write an app to do it.

There are many utils/supportpacks like MO71 which helps you to do this...
If you want to do it in application, you may have to browse the messages till you get the desired sequence then do the destructive get ...
