In a 3d modeler tool like Fusion360, a 3d view shows the 3d model. You can decide what renderer to use to show the model, but in general it would be wireframe, flat shading, silhouette, etc... in these view you can pan, orbit, zoom and this is the place where you do your 3d modelling.
2d views in these tools, usually derives from your 3d model, and could be of different nature. They can be sheets representing projections of your 3d model on various 2d projection plans, sections, annotations and/or dimensions, borders, title block, ... These views are usually needed to add additional information before you send them to a manufacturer, and/or illustrate/annotate your model. @d views are dynamic in a way, that the changes you do on the 3d view/model will update your 2 views automatically less some additional information you added by hand.
In a 2d package, there is no 3d views and the 2d view is the place where you design your 2d drawing, and you may have additional 2d sheeets view like in AutoCAD, where paper space sheets can contains model viewports to arrange special view of your drawing (note I took AutoCAD as an example even if the model space view can contain 3 objects).
Hope that helps,
