I think there’s a large crossover of stolen accounts and accounts that are used for botting. Furthermore, there’s basically nothing (that I’m aware of) stopping you from making a bajillion gmail accounts and I’m sure the process could be fairly simply automated.
A user can use temporary phone numbers to generate at least several accounts over at least a handful of countries. These tools are made for privacy purposes but where there’s privacy, there’s also usually someone abusing it… which usually leads to ruining it for the rest of us.

Google has phone number verification when you create a gmail if i remember correctly

Hmm, quite possible
