The end-state that a login flow terminates with eventually gets "rippled" out of the stack of flows calling each other and becomes the event that gets processed as an error.

The built-in events, like that one, are already defined in an abstract parent flow that all the login flows should inherit from, there's an <end-state id="InvalidCredentials"/> defined. So if your flow signals that event, it will automatically happen.
