I don't know Emacs, I'm a vi guy. ;-)

But I guess that Emacs shows the matching closing bracket at the beginning of the line, which matches that single
tuple.But you also need a closing bracket for the set of tuples like this: 

insert ...
(
    (v1, v2, v3),
    (v4, v5, v6),
    (v7, v8, v9)    <= this is the bracket pair that Emacs shows as matching.
);     <= this is the missing bracket.

Cheers,
Paul
