You can say "Have a nice day" without any problem, but using the phrase "enjoy the next 24 hours" can sound slightly threatening.

"Day" is indefinite — it basically implies "from this moment until you undertake your next major sleep"
"24 hours" is quite definite.
Factor in "tone", and, yeah, there's an easy case for misinterpreting the latter as a statement of menace.
