In the test plan, in the thread group settings, populate those fields
with functions that evaluate a property.

So you make up a bunch of parameters, something like

pThreadGroup1
pThreadGroup1ramp
pThreadGroup2
pThreadGroup2ramp
...
Etc

In the test plan itself, define the number of users for ThreadGroup1 to
be a function that evaluates the property
${__P(pThreadGroup1)}

And the rampup to be
${__P(pThreadGroup1ramp)}

Then when you run the test plan, pass the values to use for the
properties.. either via a properties file or via command line switches
Jmeter -t testplan.jmx -JpThreadGroup1=3D10

Etc
