A Cash Cow YouTube Channel is a term apparently made by Chase Namic, a self-made millionaire who owns more than 20 channels on YouTube.

He explains that a Cash Cow YouTube Channel is made with ‘the sole purpose of making money’. Basically, these are channels that make money by trying to get as many views as possible (since YouTube pays every thousand views) and monetizing them purely with Google Adsense.

By creating content without showing the face or without creating a personal brand. Some examples include Top 10 Mansions in LA, Top 10 Trickshots, Best game movements, etc.

How much money can these channels make?

These channels earn depending on the viewer's location, topic, and targeted audience. The channels based on the US make more money than other countries.

A channel with 403k subs and more than 10 million views, earns about $6k a month (most of the time SocialBlade’s approximate is in the high-end), but it is based in India.

A channel over 50k subs and more than 16 million views, earns about $12k a month (most of the time SocialBlade’s approximate is in the high-end), just because it's based on the US.
