State tax filing
If you're not itemizing your State income tax, you can just let it be. The 2020 Schedulle CA(540) part 2 (adjustments to itemized deduction), line 5a is state and local income tax or general sales tax. When you enter the state of residence, that also computes your general sales tax on Schedule A. If your general sales tax was more than the local and state income tax, then Turbo tax will chose the higher amount which (in your case) was general sales tax. In other words, $267 must be general sales tax. You may not itemized your federal return but the amount entered on federal Schedule A will flow through Schedule CA 540 including adjustments to income and deduction.
