Why do the forms ask if I paid a creditor more than $600 in the 90 days before filing?

The forms are asking for this information  to make sure that all creditors are treated fairly. The court wants to see which creditors you paid more than $600 to in the 90 days before filing to make sure that they didn't receive more than they would have been entitled to receive as part of your Chapter 7 bankruptcy.

You can still file Chapter 7 even if you paid more than $600 to one or multiple creditors. The payments listed here are often for secured debts (e.g. car loans, mortgage) or non-dischargeable unsecured debts (e.g. student loans and recent tax debts).
