I originally reported this problem in AWS CloudShell when using Chrome but apparently it is not specific to CloudShell.
History Bug in AWS CloudShell
Hitting the up arrow produces all manner of strange results

The same issue is also occuring in a terminal window on a Mac when connected via SSH to an EC2 Amazon Linux instance.

As you can see from the last post and this one it is happening when I am running completely different commands. So it seems like possibly a problem with the underlying compute environment?
It’s definitely not the browser or the terminal. Two completely different code bases produce the same results. It could be a network issue? Or something deep in the mac OS? But it seems to make the most sense that this is a problem with the Amazon Linux OS or the underlying hardware without digging into it much more.
