Doesn't sound like that message is coming from Firefox, Mozilla wouldn't need a phone number for anything. Firefox does use an email address for the Firefox Sync feature, but not a phone number - the Sync feature is automated.

Please provide a screenshot of that message, including the URL of the website where that happens.

I have never seen a message like that in Gmail, but it does look like something that Gmail might generate. My suggestion is ask about that in Gmail help to make sure it is legitimate.
