Currently, my Yahoo mail box is full of Facebook notification messages.I tried to create a filter to move them to a separate folder but it is not applicable for current messages already in the inbox (see details here).So my question is: how can I clean up those thousands of such emails?

Set your options (Gear symbol/Mail options) to show 200 messages per page.In the search box enter a key phrase from the emails.On the left side of the screen you can see a list of items you can use to filter the results (sender, folder, year, status). Sender Facebook might be a good one for you to select.At the top of the list of emails just to the left of sort by there is a small box, check it. Now all the messages on that page are selected.The buttons for Delete/Move/Spam/actions are now activated.Move them to a folder. You can even create a new folder.Repeat the last 3 steps.
