For your simple case; use the = javascript String.substr function :

var url = "http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=mG6DRzIyhOo";
var video_id = url.substr(url.indexOf("=")+1);

But since youtube can have a variety of different video url formats, I would recommend using the following solution using regular expressions : https://stackoverflow.com/a/8260383/3303171
