Firefox Sync does not use your Gmail account password. It uses the password you used to set up your Firefox Account. Your Gmail email is th user name for your Firefox Account. It is common for people to reuse passwords but it is a poor habit. So the passwords may be the same but I am unable to know if you used different passwords.
