Low temperature specific heat (SH) was measured on the FeAs-based superconducting single crystals ${\text{Ba}}_{0.6}{\text{K}}_{0.4}{\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{As}}_{2}$. It is found that the sharp SH anomaly $\ensuremath{\Delta}C/T{\ensuremath{\mid}}_{{T}_{c}}$ in our samples reaches an unexpected high value of $98\text{ }\text{mJ}/\text{mol}\text{ }{\text{K}}^{2}$, about 1 order of magnitude larger than that of the F-doped system LnFeAsO ($\text{Ln}=\text{rare}$-earth elements), suggesting a very high normal-state quasiparticle density of states in the FeAs-122 system than in the FeAs-1111 system. Furthermore, we found that the electronic SH coefficient ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{e}(T)$ of ${\text{Ba}}_{0.6}{\text{K}}_{0.4}{\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{As}}_{2}$ is weakly temperature dependent and increases almost linearly with the magnetic field in the low temperature region, which may indicate that the hole-doped FeAs-122 system contains a dominant component with a full superconducting gap, although we cannot rule out the possibility of a small component with an anisotropic or nodal gap. A detailed analysis reveals that the ${\ensuremath{\gamma}}_{e}(T)$ of ${\text{Ba}}_{0.6}{\text{K}}_{0.4}{\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{As}}_{2}$ cannot be fitted with a single gap of $s$-wave symmetry, probably due to the multigap effect. These results indicate a clear difference between the properties of the superconducting state of the holed-doped ${\text{Ba}}_{0.6}{\text{K}}_{0.4}{\text{Fe}}_{2}{\text{As}}_{2}$ and the F-doped LnFeAsO ($\text{Ln}=\text{rare}$-earth elements) system, which we believe originated from the complex Fermi-surface structures in different systems.
