Guillerm,

You may want to do this

SetAttributes[Subscript, NHoldRest];

 N[Thread[Table[Subscript[x, i], {i, 1, 3}] ->
     {Pi, 2*Pi, 3*Pi}]]

and then clear

ClearAttributes[Subscript, NHoldRest];

Or you can set the attribute locally:

Block[{Subscript}, SetAttributes[Subscript, NHoldRest];
   N[Thread[Table[Subscript[x, i], {i, 1, 3}] ->
      {Pi, 2*Pi, 3*Pi}]]]
