This is happening after the last Android Studio update to 4.0. You are prompted to update to the new stable version of the plugin and if you accept it will put it on version 4.0.0. This version has a minimum requirement of Gradle version 6.0.0.
You can temporarily fix the issue by downgrading both versions Gradle and Gradle plugin in File -> Project Structure -> Project.

From #3009

There is a known issue with the bintray-release Gradle plugin used in the capacitor-android Gradle file included in Android apps

novoda/bintray-release#298

For now, the workaround is don't update the Android build tools and Gradle plugin after upgrading to Android Studio 4.0.

Also, bintray-release isn't really needed for app developers. Can this be removed from the capacitor-app build.gradle and added but commented out in one android-template build.gradle files? It's not needed for app developers. Plugin developers could then uncomment it as needed.
