Unable to type password because of mouse key and cant disable mouse key without disabling it

Another possibility, press the option key 5 times. I don't know if that will work before logging in however.

Tried this yet???
To quickly turn Mouse Keys on or off using the Accessibility Shortcuts panel, press Option-Command-F5 (or if your Mac or Magic Keyboard has Touch ID, quickly press Touch ID three times).
You can also use keyboard shortcuts, assistive switches, or facial expressions to perform mouse actions, such as left, right, or double clicks. Choose Apple menu
