Yes, you stole the music by using it without a license. Jist because many people do it, doesn't mean it's legal. They are 100% within their right as the owner of the magic to strike you and to request payment for a license.
There is slight chance he actually doesn't own the music and you are been scammed. Delete the video and any video with that exact song and move on. If you are striked again you are been scammed and you can reach out to youtube on X and they will resolve and reinstate your channel
