It's a more extreme version of what in British English we call 'cheek'. It's not nearly as strong as 'arrogance'. 'Audacity' is a good close synonym.

Chutzpah is extreme arrogance or presumption. For example, there's a joke definition of "chutzpah" which is that it's the attitude displayed by a man who kills his parents and then asks the judge for mercy because he's an orphan.
