Try

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=16\+0001

or

RewriteCond %{QUERY_STRING} ^q=16\%2b0001

The "=" does not need to be escaped. However, the "+" does need to be escaped if it appears as a literal.

Additionally, "+" may appear as an encoded entity in the query string, in which case it will match "%2b". I showed both cases, since I'm not sure how it appears inside %{QUERY_STRING} (please let us know!).
