compromised passwords

Google checks your email against a large set of compromised credentials.
You can check yourself at resources like haveibeenpwned.com, which has 16
records of your email in its datasets.
157 sounds like a lot and makes me question Google's data quality, but in
any case this is what they are doing.
Have you tried a different password? Maybe Chrome won't let you save what
it thinks is a known compromised password.
