Just to clarify this is separate from the traditional Zombies mode. This seems to be an extra mode. The original Zombies experience will be available on all platforms.

The Thread Title is a tad misleading.

Interesting, didn't realize. So what is the difference between the 2 modes?

Zombies is one of the 3 Core Modes in COD which breaks down like this. Campaign + Multiplayer + Zombies. Zombies has been popular since its introduction in COD WAW. It is a 4-player co-op mode that is structured as its own Left 4 Dead - style campaign with unique settings, characters, and even cutscenes. Having the Zombies mode timed-exclusive to one console would be a major blow/coup and fundamentally alter the value proposition of the game.

Zombie Onslaught on the other hand seems to be confined to 2 co-op players. You play on stages adapted from the multiplayer maps. You move around the map and shoot different hordes of zombies but it seems to lack the progression of the traditional Zombie mode. Considerably smaller and more limited.
