There is actually zero evidence they ever were. Interestingly there was never slavery in Egypt until the Habiru brought it with them.
Who were the Habiru?
Akhenaten was one

Habiru capital city was AVARIS, which is where we get the word avarice
Many have speculated, and I think make a very good case, that it was the Habiru + Akhenaten that were ejected/exiled from Egypt and that Akhenaten is the Moses figure.
