Dear , I never ever EVER want to save a 6-digit password. That's ALWAYS a one time passcode. Please regex that and disable the "do you want to update your password?" prompt. Kthxbye! CC

Web developers unfortunately don't spend a couple extra minutes marking up their forms correctly:
html.spec.whatwg.org/multipage/form
Chrome auto-completion largely relies on telemetry to gather data about forms across sites and implement heuristics to cope with them. It's pretty awful.
Since most web sites aren't marking up their forms this way, they gather information on forms across sites with telemetry and then distribute a bunch of generic and site-specific heuristics to cope with their forms:
google.com/chrome/privacy
That's the state of the web in 2022.

The web site is likely using an id/name for the input field and/or form that's associated with passwords. They might explicitly set it as a password input. In my opinion, Chrome shouldn't have these heuristics and this should be for web sites to set up based on web standards...
