Confused Legal definition of Joint Ownership via an "OR" disignation

Q: A Jumbo CD (of $200,000) is held as "Party 1 OR Party 2" and the
interest has been reported under SS # of Party 1. Upon the death of Party 1, is the "OR" designation technically the same as "AND" (implying joint
ownership) or how is such "OR" titling to be interpreted? Does Party 2
assume legal ownership of CD upon death, outside of probate? A different account was held as joint with an "AND" statement, but this "OR" designation seems unclear. Any thoughts?
