Is it likely that someone else was doing the same thing in another
session?  This failure is known to occur if two backends concurrently
ANALYZE the same table --- the second one to try to update the
pg_statistics row fails because of the concurrent write.  It's quite
harmless, except for preventing the rest of the VACUUM command from
completing.
