I mean, it could be a glitch.
I personally wouldn't assume that it is, because, it would be a truly awkward glitch.
Whatever is the case, I would advise you to change all your passwords of the mentioned services you have stored in your iCloud Keychain, because, as unlikely as it may seem, there certainly is a possibility that your passwords have been leaked publicly. This will not necessarily lead to your accounts being compromised, but it just as well might.
As you may be aware, this service works through Apple getting lists of breaches and leaks, sending them to your device, which will then check securely if the passwords match.
long story short, please consider changing your keywords, and remind your friend of doing so.
