It seems to be coming from deep with emacs: if I create a buffer
with

x y z \ x y z

and evaluate (with point somewhere on that line)

  (buffer-substring-no-properties (point-at-bol) (point-at-eol))

I get "x y z \\ x y z", so the backslash is escaped willy-nilly.

This happens in org-element-keyword-parser. I don't know if the
macro expansion would replace \n with a newline absent the extra
backslash, but I'm sure that its presence does not help any.
