Well... If you do a Google search about the "End of the Mayan calendar" and go after the internet threads from 9, 8, or 7 years ago, most people used to talk about December 23, 2012.
I really don't know when the majority of people started to talk about December 21 instead of December 23...

"At extreme ends of the four year calendrical cycle the solstice can sometimes get shunted into the early hours of the 22nd, as it does this year. Next year is a leap year, which resets the calendar so that the winter solstice will fall on the 21st again," said Marek Kukula at the Royal Observatory in Greenwich, London.
