The phrase is directly compositional: 'sense' (a feeling) combined with 'of' linking to 'peace' (inner calm) yields 'a feeling of calmness', which is the given definition.

Etymology

The noun sense of peace comes from the simple words sense, meaning a quiet inner feeling, and peace, meaning calm and no trouble. Imagine standing alone in a quiet place and feeling your body and mind become calm; that's why 'sense of peace' means 'a feeling of calm' today.
