I imagine that Google would allow the "cancel request" to override recent password alterations to avoid accounts being taken over simply because the cracker moved faster than the owner once it was realised the Google account was cracked/accessed.
It may not be enough to run a password update before they act on the email. It also may not be physically possible if they have a script watching for such emails from Google and cancelling the request immediately, you'd then need to set up a faster method and/or receive the email before they did.
