This is an example of satire. Satire is a type of humor that uses exaggeration and ridicule in order to mock the vices and follies of an individual, a group of people or society at large. Satire often has the intention of shaming individuals into changing their behaviour.

This is Friar Lawrence speaking to Romeo. The line could be rephrased as
How many tears did you shed for the love of Rosaline and how many tears did it take to do that.
Romeo was really one love sick puppy over Rosaline and now he's even more gone on Juliet. Father Lawrence is just in awe of that transformation. Washed is a personification. You should go to this speech and read the rest of it.
