Morphology
The verb 'calm' clearly conveys the intended action (to soothe or relax), so a learner who knows that verb could guess the general meaning. However, the possessive + body-part slot 'one's tits' is a vulgar, metaphorical emphatic insertion rather than a literal object, and its pragmatic force and register are not predictable from the constituent words alone. Because the core action is transparent but the idiomatic, vulgar use of the body-part is culturally loaded and not fully derivable, this is best classified as semi-transparent.
Etymology
Calm one's tits is rude slang that uses the word tits, a rude word for breasts, to make the command to 'calm down' much stronger. That's why people use it as a harsh or joking way to tell someone 'to relax' or 'stop being angry'.
