Just use the restart file as your input coordinates for a new run with
irest=1 and ntx=5; make sure you specify new files names for all of
your output files. Unfortunately since you are using the Langevin
thermostat you will not be able to exactly recover your trajectory
from 13500 onward; this is because the random number stream will be
different. However, this won't affect the fidelity of your simulation
results.

Don't use mpirun with pmemd.cuda! What you are doing here is launching
10 competing copies of pmemd.cuda, which at best will unnecessarily
tax your system, and at worst will result in file corruption due to
separate threads trying to write to the same file at the same time.
Just run pmemd.cuda by itself. If you have multiple GPUs you can use
pmemd.cuda.MPI or use pmemd.cuda in combination with setting
CUDA_VISIBLE_DEVICES; see many earlier posts on the list for more
information.
