Some subway systems have properly labeled exits (eg 1, 2, 3a, 3b), and Google maps will route you accordingly (tell you to take exit 3b and then turn right etc). I believe Taipei, south Korea are in this category
Unfortunately, NYC is not one of them. But if you enable transit mode in Google maps, it will show the station layout in pink, and Google maps will direct you to use follow which Street exit and direction. (Eg take Broadway & 42th, southeast exit) . No numbers though
