Plethora and Surfeit are synonyms.
Legions means a big unit of army

Yes, legion independently goes well as a well, but then Surfeit and plethora should be equally go with legion.

The answer should be Plethora and surfeit in this case

Surfeit is a notch above plethora in the sense that it is an overabundance of something. We want a word that signifies a vast number. Hence plethora and legion (a vast number of something) make sense.
