If you apply your 2001 excess contributions of $2,000 to a 2022 Roth contribution before April 18, 2022 then you do not have to pay the excise tax of 6%.
Remember that you must apply the amount of excess and its related earnings. If there are earnings, these earnings are taxed in 2021 (and subject the 10% early withdrawal penalty if you are under 59 1/2).
