I doubt it told you that. I expect it told you that, if you lose access to your (password,2FA token) combination _and_ your recovery keys, you’ll lose access to your account.
You normally never need your recovery keys.
Recovery keys are a way more secure way to handle that then the “what’s your mother’s maiden name?” like questions traditionally used to handle “forgot my password”.
