"UIDs and GIDs in range 0..100 are reserved for important system
accounts. New assignments in that range need to be explicitly approved
by the QA lead, in response to a justified request from the developer."
https://projects.gentoo.org/qa/policy-guide/user-group.html#pg0901

So please choose another GID, preferably the next free one from 499
downwards.

GID 405 is indeed free and would be a much better choice.
