Probably because they triggered the intervention of the US in the war.
Explanation:
The sinking of the Lusitania (with the loss of civilian American lives) produced a huge resentment in the public opinion against unrestricted submarine warfare launched by the German Navy. Probably the Lusitania (like other "neutral" freighters) was also carrying ammunition to England because there are suspects that its sinking was quite immediate and destructive after the torpedoing but anyway this was an open act of aggression against a clearly marked non-belligerant vessel.
