The format is applied directly to the column.  Juan Carlos is right that it's in the Modern List Web Part that the format doesn't show.

Any ideas when (or even if) the Modern List Web Part will support column formats?

      Thanks for looping me in.  We are working on adding the column formatting functionality to the list view web part now.  We are planning on shipping this functionality in the next couple of months.
