We won't know what your password is, as you created it when you installed the distro and set it up. I can't reproduce the issue here at all on any of my WSL setups, but a workaround you can do is - in a Windows Command Prompt run the following

kali config --default-user root
kali
(you will now be in the kali wsl instance)
passwd wrathofgod
(enter the password you want to change it to be and then again, a second time)
exit
kali config --default-user wrathofgod
kali
sudo apt update && sudo apt dist-upgrade
(enter the password you created with passwd)
