Wouldn't that make it 3FA? I'd need my password, my physical key and my fingerprints?

They're used as second factor authentication, not on their own and are generally linked to a TOTP/HOTP mechanism. They (depending on which technology you use) create unique, pseudo-random codes to enter (linked to some salt+time value) along with a passphrase or another auth factor (could be a smartcard of course)
