It's chrome vanadium. Significant difference.
Then post the Chrome Moly set that you were going to buy off Amazon.

Leaves me wondering how many of each.

Milwaukee labels their impacts as "high strength forged steel" They want to be free to use whatever Chinesium they get their hands on. It keeps both their product labeling but also all the 3rd party website descriptions of their products from being inaccurate.
Both Cr-V & Cr-Mo can make perfectly good Chrome plated hand tools or Black Oxide finished impact tools.
The metallurgical difference between chromed hand tools & impacts is not so much differences in the initial alloy rather the heat treating. Also they are just plain shaped physically different with impacts having thicker walls.

Like said it does not really matter much which alloy they use.
It is just funny that Milwaukee could not commit to saying which, either because they are currently getting both from different suppliers or they just don't want to lock themselves down if supply changes in the future.
Remember like so many other brands Milwaukee is just a label put of tools marketed to a certain demographic. They are owed by the same Chinese company that makes Ridgid, Ryobi, Hart & a more than a dozen other brands. www.TTIgroup.co
