The term 'chosen' is greatly misunderstood. What chosen means is that Jews were chosen to keep the Torah as their path to HaShem. This does not mean that they are better than any other group.
A Scriptural perspective:Because God told them they were, and told them why:Deuteronomy 7:6-8 - "For you are a holy people to the Lord your God; the Lord your God has chosen you to be a people for Himself, a special treasure above all the peoples on the face of the earth. The Lord did not set His love on you nor choose you because you were more in number than any other people, for you were the least of all peoples; but because the Lord loves you, and because He would keep the oath which He swore to your fathers, the Lord has brought you out with a mighty hand, and redeemed you from the house of bondage, from the hand of Pharaoh king of Egypt." [NKJV]
