Minecraft snapshot 24w45a introduces a new minecraft:xmas property useable by item model definitions; the chest and trapped chest item model definitions use this property to dispatch to a special model type with the minecraft:christmas texture.
I believe this naming to be an inconsistency within the game's resources as it generally uses the 'xmas' term consistently in other places, both within data and in user-facing strings.
Instances of 'xmas':
Splash text:

Instances of 'christmas':
Texture used by single chests and trapped chests:
