Because the site thinks you want to sign in using PassKeys (Webauthn) from your Windows credential provider. You'd need to find some button on the site to put you through a different login method.
Answer is unsatisfactory. Security at site denies any knowledge of need for USB security key. Message indicates request comes from Mozilla. Without resolution, solution is to use different browser.

Firefox may require Windows authentication to view or copy saved passwords. That is described in the following article: Secure Firefox passwords with device sign-in. However, what is shown in the screenshot is something different.
Unfortunately, the original URL is not available. Are you seeing it on a different page that volunteers could check? Insert a space before the top level domain (for example, between mozilla and .org) in the URL to avoid link spam moderation delays.
